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 has a Bayesian average rating of 65.6/100, a mean average of 64.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 64.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.3.

A return to form for Robbie Williams, after the not-quite-as-good "Sing When You're Winning." Some bold risks are taken here, but they certainly pay off. 9/10! (Edited)

Very good album. Best 10 songs average is 90,0/100 and the album can get very good 90/100. Best song is "Feel" great , followed by "Something beautiful", "Monsoon", "Come undone" and "Cursed" all very good. Most other songs good, some ok only. Favourite!
Genre: Pop Rock
This is jam packed full of great tunes. It's difficult to tell which his best album, this or 'I've Been Expecting You'.
