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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.0/100, a mean average of 75.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.5.

Bit heavier than some of their later ones where they went into a bit of an ambient metal soundscape mode. This is when they were still more predominantly Prog Metal. First half's songs just nicely segueing into each other. The great thing with Anathema is that they're very consistent with the caliber of album they make even when expanding in sound and style.

I love this album.
Perhaps the last of era one. or first of era two, (of three), of this ever changing developing band. (Edited)
anathema'nın en iyi albümü.
All I have heard by this band and something which makes me want to listen to more of them. Not much else to say right now. (Edited)
