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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.8/100, a mean average of 81.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 8.4.

Prior to Evening Machines, I had a feeling Boulder, Colorado, singer-songwriter Gregory Alan Isakov was due for a truly great album. His previous work was strong, often excellent, but none of his songs struck me as completely memorable, just competent. Evening Machines corrected all that. The most transcendent moment here is the absolutely great "San Luis," an impressionistic lyrical and acoustic journey through the Colorado landscapes and people I came to love deeply during the three years I lived there. I'm reminded of a drive through the open, rolling hillscapes of southern Colorado on my way to climb San Luis Peak. a remote 14,000-foot mountain somewhere in a forgotten corner of the San Juan Range, one of the state's most beautiful and iconic. This is Isakov's masterpiece.

Another beautiful indie folk masterpiece from a guy that already has a few. It's a bit disarming hearing a keyboard opening the album, but it works. A master of his craft.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
