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 25% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.5/100, a mean average of 74.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.1.

I played this a lot when it was released in 85. Still enjoy giving it the occasional spin. If you like Simple Minds and U2 you might like this although it is a darker sound overall. 'Love is not a Ghost' and 'One Thousand Reasons' and 'Temperature Drop' are great tracks, the latter should have been released as a single. The minimal use of keyboards and acoustic guitar work in this band add to the atmosphere, sometimes less is more. I hadn't realised it until today but there're nods to 'Talk Talk's' darker tracks.
