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 filled with a lot of good songs that are all reasonably short and most have enjoyable choruses. There is definitely a lot of songs on the album I want to hear again and I think the vocals and instruments do work extremely well together and feel completely in sync. However, all the songs do feel a little bit the same and there isn't a huge amount of variation in the music. Overall. it is an enjoyable and smooth rock album, that is short and sweet.

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 :(
