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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.3/100, a mean average of 76.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

This is where their softer acoustic side was introduced. The songs don't really stand out but this is still the thing that set them apart from the other grunge bands in the beginning.

It's nowhere near as good as Jar Of Flies, but its still a cool collection of songs. Love how they can go from almost metal to all acoustic.

The obvious standout is Got Me Wrong, but Jerry’s first venture on lead vocals with Brother is an outstanding track. Ann Wilson was a great addition with both Brother and Am I Inside, the latter of which I think is the underrated gem on the EP.
