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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.5/100, a mean average of 71.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.4.

But a fairly important number of tracks are not as good so definitely not their best album in my view. But still rises from 39th tot 32nd rank of…”

"Inside Out" is an excellent song and it got the radio play it justifiably deserved. However, the rest of the album never quite lives up to its standard.
