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 69.4/100, a mean average of 68.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.5.

Album's very good and melodic. It's probably Tori's most colorful work this far. But as it failed to send a deep lyrical message and sort of left the focus on the piano, some just didn't enjoy it, which is the case I don't mind though. I don't suppose that Tori has to be inclined to produce all her albums as piano-rock pieces. That's enough said I guess. Favorite tracks are The Power of Orange Knickers (very very sensational beats and vivifying low notes), Sleeps with Butterflies and Mother Revolution.
