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 71.4/100, a mean average of 70.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.5.

Like this album a lot but it's held back by a few boring songs in the second half.. Leave off 'Cocaine Killed My Community', 'Thrills Have Gone', 'Strange' and 'Sinking...' and you're left with a suuuperb little 38 minute LP (my cd copy had Woke Up This Morning as closing track).
After the great LP that was Exile, Alabama 3 is back. Maybe a more consistent effort with less memorable tracks. They towed down the electronic influence a lot more on this LP in favor of focusing on more homey instruments. It worked for me and I thoroughly enjoyed this album.
