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 72.8/100, a mean average of 71.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.8.

I can't really get a handle on how well (or how poorly) this album has aged over the last ten years. It was one of my favorite albums, and I've probably put tens if not hundreds of spins on it since its release. But I think I've played it maybe twice in the last two years or so.

I know how my personal opinion of Jack Black has taken a nosedive as he just seems to get more annoying to be as time goes on. There's still a number of good songs here, and KG is still extremely on point throughout the whole album. But as much as I try to separate Black from his character on this album, it just kind of bleeds in. Maybe I'm just grouchy in my old age.

Way better than it has any right to be. Very funny stuff with some good music backing it.

It's not the best Tenacious D album, it's just a tribute (Edited)

Rarely does album make you laugh as hard as it rocks. Tenacious D provides the self aware loser band album we always needed. (Edited)

Who would've thought that you could take comedy & rock and come out with a successful result? This album is very funny and more importantly, the music is fantastic! Kyle Gas is a great player and Jack Black is not only fun but a good singer as well. There are other artists that do comedy music (Flight of the Concords and Stephen Lynch) but no one does it better than Tenacious D!!!
