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 70.4/100, a mean average of 68.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.6.

Cheap Trick's firm fall into pop, there are a number of nice pop/rock songs on this album, including hits "the flame" and the "don't be cruel" cover, showing off their new-found enjoyment in production tinkering (also found on "space" and "all wound up").
