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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.4/100, a mean average of 76.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.3.

Phenomenal album - a landmark in modern prog. Superb production, technicality, songwriting, and musicianship, packed with a unique spread of emotions that feel mature and well-rounded in spite of their roots in metal. Front to back this album kicks a**, with some of my favourite moments in music - from one of the greatest guitar solos of all time in Kascade, a full-on acid trip in Lippincott, the absolute tastiest percussive djent riff in Physical Education, to the beautiful classical interlude subtly tucked between monstrously triumphant riffs in Nephele. This album has left a marked impact on my life that few albums can claim to have achieved.
Standout tracks: Kascade, Physical Education, Another Year
Might catch some flack for this, but Tosin Abasi is the GOAT.
