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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.8/100, a mean average of 75.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.4.

I like the fact that the last song from this album ends exactly like their previous album started. The same sound, 10 years appart. But you gotta see them live to really enjoy the power of these songs. Great stuff!

Way different from what we were expecting, first try i didnt really liked it. Tough it grow on me, Always On was a dead-on bullseye. EDIT: This album got me gripped, multiple songs keep haunting my head, i've been playing this album daily since it came out.
