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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.4/100, a mean average of 77.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.4.

Guitarras matadoras, mas um clima mais permissível.

Meliora is a sort of kitsch satanic church choir of an album. It certainly has its strong points in the spiritual parody "He is" and the greedy "Mummy Dust". However as the album goes on you begin to know where its going both musically and lyrically. Ultimately, It doesn't overwhelm you with its demonic majesty but you still respect its effort.

Guitars layered over Guitars layered over Guitars to create a sound that is BIG

More like 1970's ban Boston than a metal band

Ghost show here why they are one of the most important and gene bending artist in modern rock

Simply stunning album from wire to wire

A friend tried a couple of times to get me into Ghost. It didn't work for me. Then I listened to this album. Wow, it is so melodic and accessible. No fillers either.
