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 charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 85.1/100, a mean average of 84.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.9/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 11.0.

16 albums and 22 bands in common and I only gave you 80. Not really anything I don't like here either so raising my rating to 90.

It shows that you've got a real appreciation for impeccable songcraft. The list is consistent without being too predictable. Makes me think I really oughta listen to all those ones with little green headphones by them.

No alarms and no surprises here. Nice to know there are people on here who love pre-Soft Bulletin Lips' albums.
