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 73.4/100, a mean average of 74.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.7.

I feel like I lived this album when it came out. It was a bit more sincere than some of the beautiful and dangerous stuff on él, or maybe not much more sincere, but very autobiographical. One of the very few albums that echo the beach boys without copying them at all. Instead it delivers a young, ultra fragile but stable songrwiting that takes us to secret places, pours rain over our heads and walks with us through a William Dieterle movie in which the girl to dream about is a ghost.
