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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.9/100, a mean average of 74.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.8.

This is by far the best Harmonium album and the best Quebecois album in history. I'm clueless as why this is so underrated but l'heptade is a true masterpiece of the prog rock genre that can't be fairly appreciated after only one listen.

It is too long even for a prog rock album, and there are lights and shadows in here. But the good moments are just awesome.

Second best progressive rock album after Les cinq saisons of Québec province and one of the best prog rock album ever made, in my opinion

Harmonium's L'Heptade is the best ever album from Quebec. A double album in French. Great Music.
