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 73.0/100, a mean average of 71.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.3.

Really good sounding music displaying a range of contemporary influences including The Velvet Underground and Jeff Beck. As is consistent with their previous material, the biggest detriment is the lack of a quality lead singer though Danny Harris, or whoever it is that sings "Buddha" and the closer, makes a pretty good effort of it when called upon. The subject matter is questionable on the second half of the album.
