Rating metrics: Help Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)

This album has a Bayesian average rating of 70.6/100, a mean average of 70.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.3.

Excellent album, by an unbelievably underrated group. Whenever I mention this group to anyone, they just chuckle at the name and say that they sound crap. WHY?! The best songs are Run-Away, Battersea Odyssey (great for ending a long walk home in the dark) and Let The Wolves Howl At The Moon. The worst song is...Carbon Dating, possibly. That is excluding the intro (The Gateway Song). Great stuff!
