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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.6/100, a mean average of 71.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.9.

Very important album, it signifies the end of an era. On the poppier end of their releases, it never fails to entertain. Girls Of Wild Strawberries has a well deserved place among my favorite songs by them.
Standout Tracks;
Window of My World
Girls of Wild Strawberries
Never Gonna Have to Die
Everyone Thinks I'm A Raincloud
Asian Minor
