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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.5/100, a mean average of 74.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.9.

Favoritas: No One's Gonna Love You, Cigarretes Wedding Band, Is There a Ghost, Detlef Schrempf
My favourite Band Of Horses track Detlef Schrempf is on this album. Is There A Ghost is also a great track
A fine album by a very likable band. My favorite cut is the very bouncy General Specific.
When I Live alone is there a ghost in my house
