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 72.8/100, a mean average of 72.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.4.

A very solid sounding pop album that has a bit of an edge to it and one that marks AURORA as an artist for me to keep an eye on in the future.

There is an auteur spirit to “The Gods We Can Touch”. Aurora frames the album with explorations of femininity and tributes to pagan deities. Her fae voice compliments the vision quite well giving a bit of magic to every line. The concept's limitation is its volume. The project never leaves a middle volume and that hinders. If it were quieter, it could develop a real sense of intimacy and if it was louder, it could be a ground proclamation. In the middle, it’s not as potent as it could be.

Lindo e etéreo, mas com alguns toques de ousadia, de graça.
