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 73.3/100, a mean average of 74.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.2.

Thao's got one of the most remarkable, fragile voices in the indie-pop industry. This is one of her most remarkable albums, but certainly not too fragile. It rollicks, uplifts, breaks down, and explodes with percussion and guitar fueled joy. Every moment of sadness is undercut by Thao's coy, pillow-soft timbre and sparkling instrumentation. This album is so good, it cures depressions.
