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 71.3/100, a mean average of 70.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

The 1st album I bought of 2005 and one of my favourites of that year here we see 'Stereophonics' going back to their most heaviest since the first album best tracks 'Dakota,Devil,Rewind,Superman. (Edited)
'Dakota' makes this. 'Superman' was a big favorite back in the past. Don't like it as much now. They made something timeless with the 'Dakota'. 'Rewind' is another top hill moment. (Edited)
A couple of top tunes, including the magnificent Dakota, other than that, pretty standard British rock really (Edited)
My favourite album by the band and for me their most raw sound. (Edited)
I preferred their earlier stuff I still enjoyed this. Dakota, Superman and Lolita are the highlights. No weak tracks, I enjoyed each one. (Edited)
