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 68.9/100, a mean average of 68.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.4.

Possibly Morrissey's finest album since 1994, despite charting at number 2 and gaining a high proportion of favourable reviews, it still seems to have been neglected somewhat. It didn't help that Morrissey fell out with the record company and the album did not receive any further promotion and was indeed pretty much disowned by them.

A great collection of songs, although one of the extra tracks on the deluxe edition like Art Hounds or Drag The River should maybe have edged out Earth Is The Loneliest Planet from the original track listing.

Another fine album from Morrissey with the music sounding, surprisingly, more casual and looser than ever. Although the lyrics retain the master's trademark snarl, the rhyming scheme is his simplest to date (who else pines for the days when Moz would come out with lines such as "And the air hangs heavy like a dulled wine") even if they deftly and sucessfully tell their story. His story is not over yet.
