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 73.1/100, a mean average of 72.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.9.

An aptly titled album. Imagine a coming of age Patty Smith with a dash of Laurie Anderson and you might have some idea of what's going on here.

My rating for this will only go up in time.. But for now, it's a beautiful album. I hope everyone here listens to this album within the year.

There's some pretty interesting moments and others not so much. I think stylistically it is a bit too scattershot to really get into as a whole, but there are some tracks worth repeated listens.

If a guy made this album it would be really uncomfortable.
