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 67.2/100, a mean average of 66.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 23.5.

A promising album from a very promising band results in Hello Hurricane.

Months ago, I saw this album for $2 at my used bookstore. Being a person of faith, I considered picking it up, but ultimately decided against it (I thought it was just the "top 40 single" kind of album). A week later, I see this on the list, and I rush back to the used bookstore, only to find all the copies gone.
I was devastated. Hopefully, I'll be able to get myself a copy soon.
While at the moment it may not be much of a masterpiece, years from now people will look back at this as the best Christian Rock album of all time. The songs soothe the soul and John Foreman's voice has never been so strong for today's youth.
