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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.2/100, a mean average of 76.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.7.

A great album, surprised it's so lowly ranked in the overall chart. Very diverse tracklist, you've got the mix of poppy songs and acoustic ballads. A few filler tracks but they are only a minute long each so don't disrupt the flow of the album. Even though it's got a lot of tracks it's a very easy album to listen to. Of the full length tracks, there are none that I dislike. My highlights are Once Around The Block, Cause A Rockslide, The Shining and Disillusion.
I listened to this as background music and didn't really get it, so I started it over at a more audible volume and actually found it quite appealing.
Nice release from Damon, plenty to enjoy here. Highly recommended
Damon Gough's greatest album. It's an eclectic record, full of fantastic songs and is an excellent musical journey through different moods and styles. A modern day British classic.
Brilliant, beautiful album - truly magical. Terribly underrated!
P.S. Just noticed the comment below - the fun part is that Say It Again is probably my least favourite on the record (still a great song, just so many better ones on here) - the thing is that this record is so consistently awesome any track has a shot at being your favourite! Find which one is yours why don't you :)
Goes on and on. Playing acoustic guitar and murmuring about god knows what. 18 tracks and no favorite.
Best Track: Say It Again.
