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 is rated in the top 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.3/100, a mean average of 77.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.6.

There has never been an album that fit the "Kosmische" label as much as Radio-Aktivität. My new favorite Kraftwerk album.

Even if it's slightly inferior to Kraftwerk's very best albums, "Radioactivity" still remains remarkable, pioneering and timeless. The fusion of chilly, futuristic electronica and electricity / telecommunications / nuclear (disaster) subtext is utterly bewitching. A highly underrated concept album and one of the greats of the decade.
