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 73.2/100, a mean average of 73.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.9.

I've worked out that this is my highest rated Dropkick Murphys album and I am trying to work out why. Let me say first that I like all of their albums but unlike the typical trope of bands (especially it seems punks bands) being at their most powerful and most somehow authentic in their first couple of albums the Murphys seem to have genuinely grown and developed as they have grown older as a band.
I think I like this album best because it seems like this was the cusp moment when it all came together and their subsequent releases have further brought a range of influences into their music.
