Rating metrics: Help 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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.6/100, a mean average of 77.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.3.

One of the best written albums I've ever heard. Unfortunately, despite the actual music being compelling (a cool mixture of noise pop and dream pop), there are a limited number of flourishes to make this record sound truly distinctive and therefore cannot keep up with the intelligent and extremely insightful lyrics.... ditto with the vocals which come across as pretty but a little bit one-dimensional and unnecessarily flat. Nonetheless, I have no qualms about calling this a proper peng debut, and I look forward to hearing more of their work.
