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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.9/100, a mean average of 72.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.6.

This album is definitely carried by a few great tracks and the rest are pretty average to be honest. The vocal is amazing in places and one of the highlights but this isn't consistent throughout and some tracks suffer from poorer vocals. The music itself is pretty average and there isn't loads to delve into really. It is very easy listening however and at no point did I find the record to drag even on the weaker songs. This is a decent album that I would come back to but I wouldn't be in a rush to do so.

Helped me a lot after an awful heartbreak. Felt as if Dolores was singing exactly about my own life.

When I was like 14, I listened to this for like 2 months constantly. I think this higher rating has more to do with that nostalgia. The music itself is actually pretty average minus a few tracks.
