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 9% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.1/100, a mean average of 74.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.2.

What's not to like with this album? It's a great example of earthy, emotive songs with Heather's most impassioned vocal delivery. 'Heal', 'Island', 'Maybe An Angel' all burst with personality. The scathing lyric in 'Blue Black' shows that Heather has an angry side, but is strong enough to stand defiant. This is one of my favourite albums of all time.
Walk This World is a great song with very catchy chorus. It's a very good guitar album so a must listen if you like that music!

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 :(
