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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.6/100, a mean average of 75.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.6.

“(1) This was loads of fun. Progressive folk, sometimes more poppy and psychedelic like on the opening track, but mostly more in the rock vein. I'm always expecting good things from Richard Dawson, he's yet to disappoint me in these several years I've been following him. Still haven't dug deeper in…”

This might be the most fun album of the year. Prog rock epics, ostensibly about plants, sung by a madman with little regard for tone or pitch. I can't speak for everyone's pandemic experience, but this ridiculousness is just what I needed entering winter of '21. (Edited)

Excellent album, I was skeptical at first listen but the instrumentals are very good and sound like prog rock influenced. One of the good album from 2021. (Edited)
