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 64.7/100, a mean average of 61.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 61.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.1.

I think this is better than Safe Trip Home, but still far from her first two albums. Dido takes about 5 years to release a record and the recent two just don't turn out that surprising. I wish she can again astonish the whole world with something as stunning as Here with Me, White Flag or Thank you in her fifth album.
I'd better at once make it clear that "No Angel" and "Life for Rent" still are my favorite Dido albums. Both albums contain such a rare large number of great songs and I always gladly return to these her first two albums.
You had to wait for five years on Dido's third album "Safe Trip Home" from 2008. Personal events in Didos life were reflected on this album, which had a distinctly sad tone and which was significantly less commercial.
"Safe Trip Home" contained fewer "big" songs than the first two albums, but it has a warm and honest feel that compensates the less distinctive songwriting. Songs like "Look No Further", "Quiet Times" and "Northern Skies" are individually very strong songs, which also helps to lift this album.
Now five years have passed again, and Dido has just released her fourth album. One can hardly say that her music has taken a revolutionary turn, but there is generally a far more easy mood on the album, which is also to a greater extent than previously is spiced with electronic elements.
I do, however, feel, like iI did with "Safe Trip Home", that some songs sound a little too similar, especially if you choose deleuxe version, which contains six extra tracks.
"No Freedom" is a great pop song which has a sound close to the "Life For Rent" album.
The quiet and almost acoustic "Sitting on the Roof of the World", is for me another the album's great songs.
Some songs take longer to embrace. Among the songs that have grown on me are "Loveless Hearts" and "End of Night".
On the bonus disc, which generally keeps the level of CD 1 songs like "All I See" and "Lost" are my preliminary favorites.
