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 has a Bayesian average rating of 70.8/100, a mean average of 69.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.8.

As lovely and great as everything after Autobahn is, they are very synthetic sounding records. Kraftwerk 2 sees the band at their most organic sounding.

Even if the rest is mostly noise, Klingklang is already setting the basis for a huge part of modern electronic music. (Edited)

I think i prefer their debut, this is laborious and unremarkable

Decent, but altogether quite bland. Some tracks seem a bit pointless, sort of like ambient music that fails to make you feel anything.
