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 is rated in the top 19% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 73.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.8.

Very very catchy. But there is enough white male indie rock in the world and I don't need any more.

It sounds potentially charming, but no amount of trying could make me care about this album.

A nice companion piece for any bed room with a big union jack and collection of CDs from the rule britania times. You love Blur and Supergrass? Then you are in for a treat.
