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 9% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.9/100, a mean average of 75.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.6.

Bought this on the back of hearing Whippin' Picadilly at the time, and the recommendation of someone who was far younger than me! Apart from Tijuana Lady (in my opinion) it lived up to both the track I'd heard and the recommendation - good debut.

Very good indie rock/alternative rock album. Best 10 songs average is 88,0/100 and the album can get very good 90/100. Best songs are Whippin' piccadilly", "78 stone wobble", "Tijuana lady" and "Get myself arrested" all 90/100. All other songs pretty good 80-85/100.

Gomez is consistently underrated. Bring It On is a fine debut album. "Get Myself Arrested", "78 Stone Wobble", and "Whippin' Piccadilly" are all great songs.
