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 is rated in the top 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 79.8/100, a mean average of 78.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.0.

Such a monumental album for Daft Punk, you can just hear the greatness in the tracks. Instant Crush will forever be that song.

10 years later I listened to this album again, I was stunned by the impact, it seemed like everything was new. This album is a masterpiece now I understand, after listening so many times in 13\14 now I understand after all these years.

This one was huge when it came out. Full of great music and hit tracks.

It hasn't aged amazing but still pretty good.

I was a real brat about this one when it came out. A decade later, and with a better understanding of DP's sound and career, I can appreciate just how exciting this is and how well it has aged. It's nothing short than a loving and exhilarating history of popular music from the 1960s onward. A lush odyssey of disco, rock, dance, and electronica with some of the influences and beneficiaries Daft Punk could assemble. Even when some of the cuts wander without much reward, RAM is exquisite. And luckily, there's plenty to adore.

Commercially successful but packed full of ambition. The album is full of moments that look to the future of music while paying homage to styles and genres of years gone by.

A bit too long, so doesn't really work as an album for me. But there are some highlights - Motherboard, Give Life Back To Music, Doing It Right and Get Lucky (although it was massively overplayed when it came out).

This album could definitely be trimmed down quite a bit with the 1 hour and 15 minute run time really pushing the concentration of the listener. There just isn't enough variation to keep someone engaged for that long and with there being quite a few tracks I would consider filler, it did become quite a slog to get through. Despite this, there are great songs present that do really carry the album and are some of Daft Punk's best tracks ever. The features are a real strength as well such as Panda Bear and Nile Rodgers being my favourites. You also have to give a lot of credit to the production which is always flawless and makes for a fantastic listen. Overall, if this record was cut down it would be one of the greatest of all time but unfortunately that hasn't been done
