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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.5/100, a mean average of 72.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.4.

This album is really just okay without the smoking hot duet Borne on the FM Waves of the Heart, one of the best rock songs of the decade.

I agree, Altsoul, Protest Songs in Response to Military Agrression charm the hell out of me. Never mind Stop and other unique radio cuts.
This album should be in the top 10 of the year. It's full of smashing alternative and punk songs. "White people for peace" kicks ass!
