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 72.9/100, a mean average of 73.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.5.

Innanzitutto la mia canzone preferita di Verlaine del dopo "Marquee moon" sta proprio qua ( "The scentist writes a letter" ), poi, oltre alla qualità ottima di altre canzoni, mi piace il tono rilassato dell'album, l'apparente non avere più bisogno di dimostrare di non soffrire per l'ingombrante paragone con "Marquee moon".
A superlative solo album that reveals itself over time. Songs like Annie's Tellin Me and One Time At Sundown are marvelous psychedelic gems whose genius is only exposed under the right conditions.
