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 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.2/100, a mean average of 74.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.3.

...I have no idea why Applerill thinks this sounds like Dream Theater, but regardless, this is sort of like Tool meets Radiohead, injected with a dose of savagery and with some brilliant lyrics. The best metal album of the '00s by a leap.
Dream Theater with autotuned screaming? OH BOY!!!! Really, though, despite that embarrassing description, this isn't that bad. Plus, many prog metal bands can learn from this album's short-but-sweet length.
