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 60.5/100, a mean average of 58.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 58.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.9.

YAWN. I had to stop listening to this more than once and do a lap around my house to try to shake it off. Absolutely no highlights and nothing going for it, Life is more like death. Please don't listen to this. I've only heard a couple things as bad as this.

The album is OK, but it´s among his weakest albums.
