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 has a Bayesian average rating of 68.6/100, a mean average of 66.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.9.

Raw to the Bone is Twin Barrels Burning with even less guitar solos and even more stupid lyrics. Not good!

Starts off alright with some fun rockers, Cell of Fame and Love Is Blue being the best of the bunch, but the act quickly becomes tired by the second half with the same rote hard rock sound and poor lyrics. The intricate guitar solos and unique lyrics that made Wishbone Ash a fantastic band to begin with are hardly present. Not a terrible album, but far from Wishbone Ash's best stuff. Only worth exploring a handful of songs and giving one or two listens for completionist's sake.
