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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 81.4/100, a mean average of 80.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

Lola, Apeman, Denmark St are genuine 10/10 tracks Unfortunately not all the others reach their exceptional standard hence the 9/10 mark
Couple of tracks are really enjoyable and good. There are a few decent ones, but also like a half of not so good ones.
Aunque los álbumes más mencionados como "el mejor" de los Kinks son de los 60, este es mi trabajo favorito de Ray Davies.
My favorite Kinks album! (Edited)

Get Back in Line is surely underrated, one of the best Kinks tracks imo. Strangers also is shockingly underrated, one of the greatest songs ever written. (Edited)
