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 74.3/100, a mean average of 73.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.1.

Sleepwalker, Follow My Voice, and I Live Now As A Singer are fantastic. Natural Blue is pretty good. The rest are just okay. Pretty boring for the most part, but those top three tracks are enough for me to give it a 70.

Quite beautiful. It's like Nick Drake and Enya (at moments). At the same time, it does lack any real dynamics.

it's not for me, too boring and flat
This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.
A little surprised I actually enjoyed listening to this album. I guess I am getting old :-/
The second half loses me a little, but 'Sleepwalker' haunts me through a few songs.
It's hard to pull off a Nick Drake-esque singer songwriter record in 2017 without sounding horribly derivative...and Byrne succeeds.
Her music reminds me of Vashti Bunyan.
