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 69.1/100, a mean average of 67.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.4.

Loved the first album, still do, bought Solitude Standing and then this at release...I felt neither of the latter were as good as the first, got a bit bored and didn't by any more of Suzanne's albums. I hadn't listened to either of those two in a long time, perhaps 20 years, and this starts strongly, Men In A War as good as any she's done, but it tails off pretty quickly, it's more of the same but like she's run out of ideas. Shame, lovely voice just a bit boring.

Good folk pop/art pop album. Best 10 songs average is 80,0/100 and the album can get good 80/100. Best song is "Tired of sleeping" 85/100, followed by "Men in a war", "Book of dreams", "Institution green", "Big space" and "Pilgrimage" all 80/100. All other songs average 70-75/100.
