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 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.1/100, a mean average of 75.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.9.

Her second effort is significantly better but this is a damn beautiful album nonetheless. A great debut and one that really showed her skills off in a wonderful way.

One of the most promising albums of 2016. It is short (25 mins) and sweet, with synths and reverb layered over stirring vocal performance. Most of the songs are reworked from previous projects, and half deal with the passing of her mother to cancer.

"Everybody" is a home run while "Heft" and first 2 are solid. Much of the album has the potential to be developed further and ultimately leaves me yearning for more.
