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 66.7/100, a mean average of 65.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.2.

Amazing voice, boring songs
Is this too new to already be one of my favorites? The delay was worth it, and I'm glad Adele waited until she could release something that she was proud of. Play Hello 100 times and it still doesn't lose its magic for me.
It doesn't necessarily break new ground from 21 but it does perfect its flaws and cover more moods and styles. If you like 21 I can't imagine you not liking this.

sometimes too much mainstream ....
Following 21 was always going to be difficult. And when I first heard this I think I was a little disappointed - it was perhaps similar to 21 without quiet hitting the same high levels. But over time I got more into the songs - although sometimes they felt even more morose that 21. But now I really like the album.
Wow, 25 is so much better than 21 more instrumental in my opinion, Remedy is beautiful! After listening hello was expecting the album sounded the same as 21 but i was wrong exept for some songs, good album imho.
