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 has a Bayesian average rating of 69.2/100, a mean average of 66.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.8.

Young the Giant isn't exactly a band I'd credit heavily for their originality, and in fact the entire genre of indie rock seems lately to have been co-opted by radio-friendly, arena-rock bands that all sound alike. That said, I think the critical backlash against Young the Giant has been pretty over the top, given that this album is filled with solidly written, well-performed songs that don't suffer as much from overproduction as many of the reviews would have you believe. Then again, maybe I just like the song "Teachers" because it's a rare ode to my chosen profession, a refreshing antitode to the anti-education cynicism of Pink Floyd and other rock bands of my youth.
