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 68.2/100, a mean average of 66.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.2.

This album is alright, but it plays things very safe. For anyone who's a Uriah Heep fan it's all going to sound very familiar, most of these songs could have fit on one of their 70's albums. It makes it an easy album to listen to if you like the style, but it's also hard to imagine that many people will still be listening to it in a few years time.
I'd pick "Golden Light" and "Freedom To Be Free" as highlights. (Edited)
