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 has a Bayesian average rating of 70.6/100, a mean average of 69.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.7.

Bon album ,pas le meilleur de ce groupe cependant car certains morceaux sont un cran en dessous de ce que Mogwai peut faire. Préférence pour le premier morceau.
Consistently good enough for me to like it, however a bit too forgettable in my opinion.
