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 is rated in the top 13% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.3/100, a mean average of 73.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.4.

A more deep and bass heavy feel on this compared to his Black Seeds albums. Filled with dark overtones. Nick Cave does no wrong, but I do prefer his Black Seeds albums (Edited)

Nick Cave rocks out with three hairy old men. Sounds promising, huh?

Nick Cave may not be as young as he used to be, but his most recent side project takes the rawness and energy that The Birthday Party once oozed in and moulds it with the eyes and hands of a dirty old man. Sexy yet crude, rough yet calculated - it sounds exactly like its name.
