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 71.9/100, a mean average of 70.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

repo: Orbital haven't really come into their own yet on this release. Sounds pretty dated and monotonous.

bobby: I agree. I'm a huge Orbital fan, but I can't even listen to this. With the exception of Belfast. Which still sounds good.

I love this album of plinky-plonky beats. I like this better than the Brown album.
