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 72.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.7.

Forget about all the new fans that enjoy the silly new album and take advice from a longtime fan, this is their best album. Attack and Release is their 2nd best. Some great hard rock/blues guitar playing and solid singing going on here.This is some real garage rock!

This album is pretty good, though it's not good as the last two efforts by The Black Keys but it's still very good.

Underrated album. I think maybe people were getting sick of the sound, which would explain collaborating with Danger Mouse on the following albums. Your Touch, You're the One and Strange Desire are great.
