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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.9/100, a mean average of 78.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.4.

I love this album. The jazzy guitar sound and the organ sound bring you in a vintage atmosphere. I can listen to this album over and over again. A hidden gem!

East coast psychedelic, centered around a hunting and recurring theme layered with beautiful guitar and organ sounds that reminds a lot of The Doors. "Theme For The Masses" is an engaging opener track that draws you in.
