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 73.1/100, a mean average of 73.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.6.

Incredibly underwhelming. I think that best describes this album. The sound is cool and there is a lot of potential for a great album from these guys, but this is not it. There are moments of interest, but most of the album is mediocre. Hopefully these guys eventually come out with an album that realizes their potential because they do have it, they just don’t really show it on this album.
So many great tracks on this LP. Anthem, Treading Paper, Words in the Water, Yellowbelly, Promises, Call it in the Air... man!
