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 is rated in the top 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.5/100, a mean average of 75.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.9.

Great
I just love how this record is produced. It really captures the energy of the band.

Listened to it because some friend said they were great. They really kick ass, this superb album needs to be more recognized. Really raw to be punk.

After a handful of listens, it's finally catching on! These guys are fucking maniacal. Love the arpeggios and guitar texture.

It's 3am and the hostile lunatic outside won't stop shouting. Keep him away from the children.
