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 70.2/100, a mean average of 69.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.3.

Lyrically its powerful stuff but generally feels too forced rather than organic
Opening 2 tracks "Life On Earth" and "Don't Give In " are great , things drop off after that unfortunately
Close but no cigar
50/100
Not a bad effort. They struggle to get away from their own generic sound. Can't deny that they can write a decent tune though.
