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 73.8/100, a mean average of 74.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.2.

Not everything Christgau hates is bad, but nearly everything he loves at least has merit and "Funeral Dress" is no exception. At first glance it seems like a wimpy album, full of simple melodies and guy-girl duets. Do a little research on the band and find that with one exception the band is composed of old men, and it's even even harder to get excited by Wussy.

But if you just keep listening, eventually, it will click hard. Every song is an ear worm and that droney guitar starts to resemble The Velvet Underground more and more as you keep listening.
