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 72.6/100, a mean average of 73.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.2.

Even though Sigur Ros have been active releasing music for various projects (movies and the like) it’s actually been 7 years since they have brought out an album proper so this Jonsi solo effort is a gift for the Sigur Ros fan
The closest current touchstone for ‘Shiver’ would be Perfume Genius with its shared DNA of ethereal brooding music and heart breaking emotional lyrical content supported by a sweet of beautiful videos that are works of art in their own rights
NPR MUSIC turned me onto this album and I’m so glad for their recommendation
