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 is rated in the top 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.7/100, a mean average of 75.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.8.

The Knife combine the best parts of electronic music from the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s to make a decidedly more upbeat album than Silent Shout. Heartbeats is one of the best songs of the 2000s.

thoroughly original synth/electro-pop album with a lot of catchy & huge tracks. as one reviewer said, it does feel like they got there before grimes by about a decade
