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 73.5/100, a mean average of 74.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.0.

this is a noisy, jangly, energetic slice of alt/college rock that got a decent amount of attention back in 1990. it had the interplay of guy/girl vocals from John Strohm and Juliana Hatfield, who would both go on to lengthy careers after Blake Babies. juliana had her moment in the pop spotlight with "spin the bottle" and is still making music. john formed the bands Antenna and Velo-Deluxe before recording some albums under his own name and then becoming an entertainment industry lawyer.
