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 72.7/100, a mean average of 72.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 6.7.

Chrissie goes for more ballads and adds a dash of country to the sound, but it's still a Pretenders record, great sound and great songwriting. The youthful aggression is all gone now, but I think there's more depth. Great album!

Their first album in 6 years. The rockers sound really fine, but the majority of the disc is ballads. More country than you've ever heard the band. And Chrissie Hynde still rules.
