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 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.0/100, a mean average of 74.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.6.

Having listened to this album a number of times, I finally get it.
Disturbing, angry, quizzical, otherworldly, fascinating, funny, and very very beautiful.
And Robert's voice floating over it all, haunting, wavering and honest.
It's every bit as good as "Rock Bottom" if not better.
