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 71.5/100, a mean average of 69.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.7.

It's alright but not great - almost like he's going through the motions. Bought this and wasn't inspired to want to buy any of his others albums. The tracks are OK individually but listening to it all is a bit of a chore. FEAR and Shadow of a Saint are the best and book end a fairly uninspring bunch.
