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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.4/100, a mean average of 78.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.3.

“1. Nothing revolutionary, nor is that what it’s trying to be. This sounds like an album where every riff lyric and everything is exact and pretty much perfect. It distills death metal down to its essential elements and does it amazingly well. It’s never abstract or wildly complex. And it’s never…”
