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 70.7/100, a mean average of 69.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.7.

with Iris being possibly the best rock ballad EVER written and the rest of the album being a decent soft rock collection it bugs my mind how in the world this album is not in top 10 of '98 on this site.

One of the best pop rock albums of the decade, several hits and a consistent tune throughout. Iris is one of the best rock ballads ever made.

Highlights: Dizzy, Slide, Broadway, Black Balloon, All Eyes On Me, Iris

Very good album. Some of their best songs. Only thing keeping it from a great album is writing ans singing of Robby Takac.
