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 71.1/100, a mean average of 69.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.1.

She grew up on the farm, daughter to a pastor/bar owner/drummer. After she tired of pop country, she dug into Hank Williams III. Then, at 23, she put out this, her third album. I will concede that it suffers from a lack of sonic variety, but she has such a great voice. And these lyrics! She is one of those (un)lucky artists who seems to have an inexhaustible seam of heartache to mine.

Great singer (same vein as Stevie Nicks) and even better songwriter (raw and honest lyrics). This Ohio native writes about anything, from dueling French poets to creepers that look like Steve Earle. Recommended.
