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 68.6/100, a mean average of 66.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.7.

The singles are great, but the rest of the album is very average. Temple is a great song, definitely in my top 50. Supersoaker and Wait For Me are also two of their best.

I think it's very decent. It's no Aha SH, but it's fun anyway.
