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 71.8/100, a mean average of 71.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.4.

I like the entire album. It's so good, I'm surprised they didn't continue making great albums.

Fantastic album! Some bands sophomore albums aren't as good as their first but man oh man is this one excellent. Shuttered Room is quite the album but Reach the Beach is easily one of the best and most underrated of the 80s.
An outstanding debut album by the Fixx scoring an 81 in my rankings. One thing leads to another is scored as a classic with saved by zero, liner and the title song also scoring high.
