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 59.2/100, a mean average of 52.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 52.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 21.3.

...But the Little Girls Understand was the 2nd album by The Knack and it began their ultimate fall from the charts. Many felt as though this album was a virtual rewrite of their first album, but I highly disagree. Though the lead off single, Baby Talks Dirty, only reached #38, the album still managed to peak at #15 and went gold. However, it did not reach the 6 million+ sales of their debut album. The songs, however, are not bad and it proves that The Knack kicked ass in the studio. Some songs are great, and some good. The album is a fun and underrated album.
