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 77.5/100, a mean average of 77.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.1.

The sound, the performance and the mix are an absolute sound design masterpiece. The basic songs behind it are not brilliant, except Drover! That's perfect harmony.
Another strong album from Bill Callahan. Apocalypse, is another masterpiece from one of the most intriguing songwriters of the last twenty years.
Great album. My intro to Callahan and I'm excited to explore more. Surreal nature imagery is wonderful.

i don't know how anyone could not like the song drover
