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 16% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.0/100, a mean average of 75.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.5.

A blisteringly good album! From the heavily reverbed drum intro of 'Dance to your Daddy' to the Eastern leanings of 'Sirocco', I actually prefer this album to Next and I love Next! From the very upbeat Dance to your Daddy to the very American driving rock sound of Amos Moses and then to the funky Jungle Rub Out, the driving drums, lead guitar solos and gritty vocals win through. Many musical styles are embraced here. Love it all!
