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 70.2/100, a mean average of 69.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.0.

“Time's Arrow” is far too washed out for its own good. The production's wateriness removes any dynamic pull or crunch from the synths, leaving them stagnant. The vocals are buried way too deep in the mix. They are difficult to hear and when they can be, they sound powerless. The lyrics are acceptable if a bit under written with the exception of “California”. This song fails to mine any real emotions out of the already overdone topic of West Coast worship. An unfortunate and flat effort.
