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 70.6/100, a mean average of 70.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.4.

Really good for an OMD album in the 90s.

Very good dance-pop/synth-pop album. Best 10 songs average is 90,3/100 and the album can get very good 90/100. Best songs are "Sailing on the seven seas", "Pandora's box" and "Call my name" all 95/100, followed by "Speed of light" 90/100. All (!!) other songs good 80-85/100.
