Rating metrics: 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 71.0/100, a mean average of 70.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.5.

Shortlisted for album of the year at the 1996 Grammys. The winner was Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette

This is a very uneven record. I think with some different arrangements and a better band this could have been a knockout album. It's enjoyable and "One Of Us" remains a sublime meditation on humanity.

Decent album overall. "One of Us" is the only great track.
