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 18% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.8/100, a mean average of 74.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.5.

A deeply moving album that comes full circle - brief but wonderful.

Pretty nice debut album here. Although I'm not 'wowed' by this album I certainly enjoyed it enough. A band to watch for sure. Looking forward to hearing more from them.
One of the most beautiful albums I have ever listened to. Very underrated.
Brilliant. Really want to dig into their older digital albums.
