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 64.7/100, a mean average of 59.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 59.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

Completely unlistenable garbage. Sounds like a cheap ripoff of hard rock without any of its actual merit and just haha funny guitar. Acid Drops is the only salvageable track.
This is not a bad album at all. Bit surprised to see it so far down the list. 'Acid Drops' is pick of the bunch for me but 'Luck's Up', 'Cruel', & 'Unfairground' are all strong tracks as well. Overall it's a pretty good rock (??) album. One I enjoy every time I put it on.
