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 69.3/100, a mean average of 68.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.9.

“Pollen” is contentment in musical form. The instrumentals are sparse feeling. A familiar combination of guitars and synths that lacks an ambitious groove or motif. However, this is somehow redeemed by the melody work. The thinner instrumentals are forged into auditory frames for the vocals. Alaina Moore is able to weave every syllable into focus, turning each word into the center of attention. The melodies are absolutely entrapping. Like contentment, boring in isolation but charming in context.
