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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.5/100, a mean average of 79.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.9.

Still the Unthanks best album. Full of fantastic songs, including a few originals, with every one beautiful and atmospheric. The cover of Robert Wyatt's, sea song, is a pleasant addition(in fact the majority of the album is set on the stormy seas). It's a brilliant album.

Gorgeous, wistful traditional folk rock that only the British could do so authentically.
