Rating metrics: Help 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 69.4/100, a mean average of 67.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.3.

While I prefer the more glossy, reverb-coated production on We Don't Need To Whisper, this record is a worthy successor of AVA's sparkling debut record. There isn't a "The Adventure" on this record, but I-Empire has some of the better songwriting moments of Tom DeLonge's career. Every subsequent AVA release has failed to live up to this quality, in my opinion.

Highlights: True Love, Lifeline, Heaven, Everything's Magic
