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 71.2/100, a mean average of 70.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.8.

When a young man is well and truly pissed off with society, you get a rant like this. This album is a myriad of eerie, powerful and harsh stories, with topics such as government censorship, drug addiction and religiously focused murder aggressively focused on (among many others). The lyrics aren't overdone; they're sharp and to the point, and the same is said for the instrumentation. Hugely underrated album that is worth a listen
