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 69.4/100, a mean average of 67.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.7.

Another good album after Eyes Open and Final Straw. Very consistent, I enjoyed every track. I actually think the album tracks are better than the singles on this one - my favourites are What If This Storm Ends, Lifeboats, The Golden Floor and Please Just Take These Photos From My Hands.
Although this doesn't make the quality of Eyes Open and Final Straw it is still a solid album
Following songs cover the essence of the album:
1. 'If There's a Rocket Tie Me to It'
2. ' Crack the Shutters'
3. ' Take Back the City'
4. 'Lifeboats'
8. 'The Planets Bend Between Us'
11. 'The Lightning Strike'
The other songs can be skipped in my opinion.

I feel like this album is their most under-rated, despite mixed to positive reviews. This is their attempt to step out of their comfort zone a little from making ballads that can be summed up by their singles to, not only retaining that formula but, to expand upon it into an interesting experimentation for the band. The lyrics are about as emotional as poetry and has that scale that Snow Patrol didn't quite acheive on their previous releases and are having difficulty replicating now.
