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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.3/100, a mean average of 76.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.0.

Best Dropkick Murphys album so far that I've listened to. Tons of energy, tons of personality, tons of Irish. As a native from Massachusettes you know I'm a fan of Dropkick. Also, I'm Shipping Up to Boston is probably the greatest Boston sports anthem ever created, it's literally played at EVERY single Celtics, Bruins and Pats home game.

Best Song(s): "Your Spirit's Alive" "The Green Fields of France" "I'm Shipping Up to Boston" "The Auld Triangle" "Last Letter Home"

Probably their best album, good punk rock record especially if you enjoy the little bit of Celtic sound sprinkled in.

Like many, I'd heard of this album b/c of "I'm Shipping Up To Boston" (featured prominently in Scorsese's film "The Departed"). I just got around to it, today. I can't stop listening to it. You all should check it out. It's vivid, it's proud and kicks ass like nothing I've heard in years.
