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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.7/100, a mean average of 70.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.6.

From LedZep 02/13/2022 15:25 in You must listen to the album below you: canon edition
“(1) I loved the more house aspects of this, while the vocals and poppy/downtempo parts weren't as cool imo. Downtempo is generally very hit or miss for me, not one of my top choices when it comes to electronic music. It's much more "mainstream" sounding and easy on the ear than the house I usually…”

This isn't a terrible album. Just very unremarkable.

When I listened to this, it was one of the most beautiful things I had ever heard. I believe that this album is just a little bit too unmemorable for it to jump up from good to great, at this point.

Not that good as previous Bonobo's albums, but definitely through endless seeking Simon still has it.
