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 71.0/100, a mean average of 70.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.5.

Read in a music magazine I can’t recall the name of whereby this album was ranked as their number one album for the year of 2022 which immediately peaked my interest so had to check it out and so glad I did. Its far from my top album for 22 however plenty to like here with standout tracks being “Broken Beauty”, “Gino And Rico” and “The Grass” (Edited)
