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 72.9/100, a mean average of 73.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

Kansas relaly came "back" with this album . This is the Kansas of the 70's back on form and clearly in the now as well. this is strong music and is the perfect transition into the even better next two albums.

Quality-wise, this was a huge comeback album and remains a criminally underrated gem to this day. The album was highly varied in mood and structure, as well as forward thinking while still being solidly Kansas through and through. Personally, I find the deep cut 'Myriad' to be a fantastic achievement.
