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 is rated in the top 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.2/100, a mean average of 76.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.6.

I tend to not think of this as a compilation, but rather all the songs the Vaseline's produced at one time. Fantastic album from beautiful songwriters.

Oh how I wish I could include this in my chart but due to self-inflicted tight judgement criteria (i.e. no compilations) I alas cannot. Which is a pity, as The Vaselines were f'ing amazing. I say were, as I saw them at XOYO last year and their new stuff is pretty dire in comparison. Highlight is undoubtedly 'Dying For It', which whilst in hospital whacked out on morphine due to meningitis and waiting for an MRI scan I could have sworn the nurse operating the machine was playing. I was going to strike up a conversation, and wish I had because they spent 10 minutes pumping Elton Fucking John into my earholes whilst I was in this godforsaken tube of terror.
