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 is rated in the top 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.4/100, a mean average of 75.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.3.

Take out the two Opus interludes and The Things That Consern (how they spelled it...I would have opted differently) You, and this thing becomes a 100% electronic/SF psych masterpiece... Although The Things That Consern You is a solid track, it pales in comparison to the other tracks on the album imo...

The first time I played this album in the early 80's it totally blew my mind - and nothings changed.

Wow. These guys rock! Spaced out jams. Nancy Blossom's voice is a perfect for balancing out the hairy, loopy guitars.
