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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.0/100, a mean average of 77.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.2.

I listened to this, and I didn't ever even think about Radiohead. If anything, it reminded me of Sufjan Stevens. In any event, I enjoyed it pretty well.

A Radiohead-like album in french. The influence from Ok Computer and Amnesiac is an evidence on it. But it's not a bad thing. Here you will find 13 good, strong and consistant songs and a nice clean production. One of the best alternative albums made in Quebec.
