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 72.3/100, a mean average of 72.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 6.9.

I’ve no doubt the Charlatans have made the odd bad album. However, this isn’t one of them.. This albums just brilliant! (Edited)
Feels like it knows what it is doing and is at ease with itself. Up At The Lake and Try Again Today are unashamedly catchy and both work well for me. Feels pristine at times and I can imagine a lot of mistakes were corrected. Does it feel clinical because of this? Maybe. Still a band putting in the effort though. It is good for what it is worth. Also, thank you Tim Burgess for writing a song for me! 'Loving You Is Easy' really made my day! Great stuff! Toodles!
