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 68.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.2.

Narcissus gave up all hope. "I'm incapable of love", sadly that seems to be the point, but the music plays well crafted and the voice still holds a reminder of the days when it sung about nothing but love (or maybe the struggle to be loved).

Nice music for Rocky Horror. I don't like the tune.
