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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.3/100, a mean average of 76.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.9.

@Goliath This was their first album to get an international release. The version listed on BEA is the original Swedish version, while the more popular international release reuses several tracks from their debut album Emmerdale. The Swedish version is harder to find online, but it's absolutely worth it!

My CD has only 8 of these tracks, why are versions so different? On my album there is an interesting version of Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. The US version is different again.

I'm listening to some version of this album. It's not the Swedish one, but it's still lovely. A real breath of fresh air.
