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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.2/100, a mean average of 76.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.1.

My introduction and first album from Suede I've bought. Very nice. Many tracks having a sweeping majesticness to them. Good enough to make me want to check out their other albums.

Prefer this to their debut album. Not a weak track, littered with loads of characteristically catchy guitar riffs. Beautiful Ones is the highlight. Chemistry Between Us is also a beautiful track (Edited)

Another strong album from Suede, they really were up there with the best of the Brits in the 90s but sadly too often get overlooked in the 2020s. The Chemistry Between Us is just so beautifully sad and poignant, brings back so many wonderful memories. One of Suede's greatest songs from their third consecutive excellent album.
