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 69.3/100, a mean average of 67.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 7.3.

This one is "mid" as the kids say. If you got 20 random people to listen to this, they would probably have a couple tracks they like best, but they would all be different ones. Probably the same with the worst tracks. Nothing stands out as particularly good nor bad, but yeah it just isn't that interesting.
Meh. I mean it was good, but mostly Meh.
Best Track: I Can't Take It
