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 68.3/100, a mean average of 66.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.4.

Bit of an oddball. I don't think it was intended to sound as pop oriented as it does. Trojans is one of my favourite tracks of last year though.
This is one of the those guilty pleasure, summer driving albums. A handful of catchy, synth-driven tunes and the generally interesting alternative rockers Backseat and Trojans save this album from the back burner.
