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 is rated in the top 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.2/100, a mean average of 73.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.3.

Now this is good stuff. Great warm sound with good variety. Good folk.
Best 2024 album so far.
It's a little treasure of songwriting and low budget producing, every song is fresh and tells you something from modern welsh with a sound from the 70's.
Beautiful album. Sounds like a mix of Lou Reed and Elliot Smith. Not all the songs were spectacular, but the album is solid from front to back. This album feels like a warm spring day.
Brilliant in places
This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.
I hear influences like Jesus and Mary Chain and Elliott Smith. Feels fresh though. I really like this album.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
