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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.3/100, a mean average of 77.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.1.

Good stuff here! Great throwback sound. Rating (82.50)
Rival Sons might be a Led Zeppelin ripoff, but they're a damn good one. In fact, I think this is the album that Led Zeppelin should have released after 1975's Physical Graffiti.
Very underrated album and band. One of the few bands that "sounds like Zeppelin" that doesn't suck.
