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 16% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 74.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.7.

Music with swagger.
In my view this album is misunderstood and highly underrated - unfortunately that's the case for the band in general. This shows the beginnings of their experimentalism with the Indian and Eastern sounds, less exotic than Edges of Twilight, but for me it is so beautifully crafted, with stunning six and twelve string guitar, sublime bass playing, rock solid drumming/percussion and a very strong and cohesive mystical theme that binds it all together. The light and shade is very well balanced on this album with great songwriting structure constructed with awesome rock riffs to go with folkier elements, blending Celtic, Eastern and Indian flavours sometimes all within the one song. One is very easily reminded of Led Zep in some of these songs (and some might say The Doors), but it doesn't at all sound like an impersonation (unlike some bands that are quite obviously guilty of this) - it just draws from that realm and takes it to new places.
Agree with the comment below. Very Doors-y feel with a middle eastern vibe. Great album. Many good tracks
Pretty good album by this Jim Morrison obsessed lead singer 4some. Fav tracks; the river and Save me.
