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 artists can have several thousand ratings)

So influential! And they had a contender for best record of '67, the best year in music ever imo

Weak vocals, uninteresting music (basic chords, little if anything in the way of modulation), silly subject matter. This is one naked ass emperor right here.
Best record of 1967. And that is saying something. Everyone went flower power, Velvet Underground made the music of the years and decades to come.
