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 70.3/100, a mean average of 68.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.0.

This is my favorite Switchfoot album. Best tracks: Stars, The Blues, Golden, Daisy, Shadow Proves the Sunshine. The songwriting is great. I'd say that Switchfoot began to outpace their heroes U2 with the release of this album.

This is a good album from Switchfoot. It's probably their darkest album and I like it. Daisy has to be one of their best songs ever. I'd place this album 1st or 2nd in the Switchfoot discography (I'm hesitating with Oh Gravity).

The Beautiful Letdown is good, but I always loved this one more.
