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 is rated in the top 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.4/100, a mean average of 72.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.4.

Old 97's are the pop side of alternative country, and they were never poppier and more tuneful than on Fight Songs, my original #1 album of 1999. The songs come shooting right out of the gate, great singalong anthems one after another: Jagged / Lonely Holiday / Oppenheimer / Indefinitely, before slowing down a bit in the middle.

The Old 97's have yet to make a bad album, but their best one is arguably this, their 4th of 7 so far.
