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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 81.4/100, a mean average of 82.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.7.

The album starts off very strong but then starts to fade in the middle and nearer the end. This is mainly due to the songs not being as infectious and it gets a little less experimental as well. This excludes the closing track which is simply phenomenal. The opening of the album starts with diverse instrumentation which sounds fresh and exciting and is performed to a very high degree. This is then built on by the vocal which delivers the lyrics so well and makes the songs so easy to sing a long to and just enjoy. This is the biggest perk of the album with it being so catchy and having those layers underneath it to allow us to explore further. Overall, there is a lot of fun to be had on this album and the musical quality is very high as well.
