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 71.3/100, a mean average of 70.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

Basic Plumbing is ex Veronica Falls members Patrick Doyle and Helen Skinner but essentially it’s Doyle’s project
Released posthumously in 2020 following Doyle’s untimely death at age 32 in 2018 the album captures much of the music committed to tape up to that point
‘Keeping Up Appearances’ stands as a wonderful legacy to an artist taken from us way too soon

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 :(
