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 69.7/100, a mean average of 68.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.2.

I avoided this for some time. They are a favourite band of mine and I've seen them probably more than anyone but after Gerry left they wouldn't really be the same band would they? A cheap vinyl record said buy me. So I did and it sounds pretty much as I'd expected. Maybe it's a grower of sorts but like the last album (that I really enjoyed) the production is a little lifeless. There are a few good tracks that will make me come back I guess.

Sounds like Grateful Dead with English accents.

I've pre-ordered this and I am so eager for it to be released. As the first album since Gerry left, will it be any good? Will it be exactly 6 Norman songs and 6 Raymond songs or will they mix it up a bit? Will they let either of the other two accomplished song writers in the band contribute a track? The four songs that have been released on streaming before it is released are a bit of a mixed bag. I'm More Inclined is a catchy Norman classic and Everything is Falling Apart is a stone cold classic, a return to rocky Raymond from the mid 90's after years of dull ballads. But I was underwhelmed by Home and The Sun Won't Shine On Me. Oh well, we'll see how they sound in context of the whole album.
