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 68.6/100, a mean average of 67.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.6.

“Dr. Dee" sounds basically like what you would expect an opera written by Gorillaz would sound like. It’s modern, not like what you would imagine a “classical" opera sounds like, but it’s not like a rock opera. It’s definitely good though, absolutely worth looking into. It’s not something you can listen to in pieces though, you should listen to it altogether.
