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 71.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.6.

Similar format to most other Placebo albums. A few great tracks but mostly verging on half decent filler. I have found this album to be a bit more consistent throughout though, as I have found a lot of their albums have the gems but all have more duds than I care for. (Except for 'Sleeping with Ghosts' that is loaded with gems. My opinion only, I know many would probably disagree).

Most of the songs are rather forgettable, the obvious exception being "Song to say goodbye", definitely not their best album. Overall, 65/100.
