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 is rated in the top 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.9/100, a mean average of 75.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.8.

I enjoy this compilation. Some of it is popish, but good. My favorites by The Cure, "Lullaby, Fascination Street, and Love Song" play one after the other. They are my favorites by The Cure. I believe this is the only album with "Wrong Number", and it is great.
The first half is good, the second not so much.

Wrong Number is the only new song and it's pretty good. Can't really knock the rest of the material either but you don't need this if you have the albums.
