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 69.7/100, a mean average of 68.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.6.

Possibly their weakest outing, nonetheless it's still a good record (which says an awful lot about the quality of releases from the Pet Shop Boys) if a little preachy.
Their weakest, but still worth a listen. Unfortunately there's nothing about this, not the bitter lyrics nor the uninvolving production, that manages to fully immerse the listener. Thank god they return to form the year after with the excellent "Electric".

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 :(
