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 is rated in the top 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.3/100, a mean average of 76.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.3.

Easily their best record, I wish more non-Canadians were aware of this. On par with anything REM ever did. (Edited)

In my humble opinion, the Hip's greatest record, bar none. Anytime I've tried to get my American friends into their music, this is the album I send them to. Works every time. (Edited)

While there is some charm in the lyrics, instrumentally fully completely is bland, and the vocals are quite stale. (Edited)

Songs like "Locked In The Trunk Of A Car" and "Courage (For Hugh MacLennan)" are instant classics. (Edited)

Gord Downie is a national treasure, a national hero, and this is his collection of national anthems. Get well, Gord. We love you. (Edited)
