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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.3/100, a mean average of 80.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.9.

A collection of some of the best stuff by one of the most overlooked post-punk innovators. Worth a listen, but it flows much, much worse than their actual albums.
The first great indie rock recordings by any band and never really bettered. As important to the history of post-punk guitar bands as Unknown pleasures, Murmer and anything by the Smiths.

Orange Juice at their jinglest-janglest. Proto-Smiths as hell, indispensable listen.
