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 72.6/100, a mean average of 70.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.8.

Quite a frustrating album, it does have glimpses of brilliance, I love the title track and Hurricane Edward, I'm A Mummy is one of the best Fall covers of the 90's, Masquerade is a good single and Ten Houses Of Eve sounds pretty much different to anything else they have done, so does 4 1/2 Inch come to think of it but it also a few throwaways. This album has probably grown on me more than most though.
