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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.5/100, a mean average of 72.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.9.

Satan Said Dance is fantastic, but the rest of it is passable.

If you can just make it past that voice and iffy production on a couple tracks, then you will encounter a strange roller coaster world influenced by the talking heads where love is easily cataloged and you're forced to jig in hell. "satan said dance" is easily the standout track here, but don't look past "Love song #7", "yankee go home" and "mama won't you keep those candles burning?".
