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 21% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.7/100, a mean average of 75.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.3.

Top 5 (today atleast) And: Screamadelica by Primal Scream Die Festung by Paysage D'hiver Selected Ambient Works 85-92 by Aphex Twin Quique by Seefeel (or Succour it is very close) Through Silver in Blood by Neurosis I think Ive sort of realized that the 90s are my favorite decade.

Incredible record. Starts off as some sort of industrial field recording, then wanders off into splendid lo-fi white noise. Listen to this.
