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 73.3/100, a mean average of 72.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.7.

Innovators. And their aesthetic is real, not manufactured like those that followed. It’s a sad fact that a lame band like Limp Biskit could ever be the fall-out of such an originally solid outfit like ST.

This album hits with short, catchy, hardcore punk attitude right in your fucking face. It was from here that they created a scene, a vibe, an aesthetic without intention. (Edited)

A perfect Hardcore album. Punk died out, and about 3 years later the west coast had a hardcore movement. This is a part of that movement. I have every song memorized to this day still. FYI: they made an album under the name No Mercy. Check it out.

Great punk album that's full of young misery and humor and is still very useful for motivation in the gym.
