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 is rated in the top 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.6/100, a mean average of 82.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.9.

most of the songs are just ensembles of sound tricks without music, I have the impression of Foetus swimming in the sea of his cliches..English Faggot? Foetus typical sounds/atmosphere without a content, so is hauss-on-fah, so is Chingada...the "chamber music" episodes are nothing more that copies of Mossolov's "Iron Foundry". I can see a real content only in the first and the last song: both of them are good incursions into alternative rock. I like the producton, but the album is a let down, compared to his precedent masterpieces

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
