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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.2/100, a mean average of 76.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.5.

“I was listening back to the last 2019 album of Glen Hansard, an Irish singer-songwriter and quite liked it so I decided to some of his earlier albums but overall didn't like them as much. So then I decided to go back to his roots: his work with The Frames of which I even had an album in my overall…”

“It is lovely. Probably both Lonerism and Currents are stronger but Innerspeaker sure has its moments. I'm listening to this right now: Love Glen Hansard's voice.”

So good. Don't miss this one. I can't even explain why, it's just -- addictive. Just right.
