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 73.3/100, a mean average of 71.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

You can tell it's a B-sides compilation album as it's not up to their standard of 2001 - present. There is still some beautiful music on this though - my favourites are Buffalo Ghosts and Lay Down Your Cross.
Brilliant hearing more music from the 2001-2003 era.
Less cosy, more dark, angsty, mysterious. Brilliant stuff, even for B-Sides. Perhaps as good if not better than "Cast of Thousands".
