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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.8/100, a mean average of 71.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.3.

Another solid set of early UK indie guitar music, not as good as their first album but still consistently listenable. It's not really post-punk, much more melodic, with some country-ish tinges and not really jangle. Hard to pick a stand-out track they are all pretty consistent, but if you had to pick one to listen to, probably The Man With The Black Moustache which has all the elements of their sound.

The Monochrome are a wonderful band. Give them a listen if they are new to you.
