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 is rated in the top 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 73.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

Pretty crazy that this album isn't even top hundred of 79? Also there's no comments. Hmm. I think it's great! (Edited)
A mix of rockers, disco, and pop. A fun record. 9/10! (Edited)
An album of good classic rock. This is growing on me more with every listen. They're better than they're given credit for. (Edited)
