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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.8/100, a mean average of 78.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

This is exactly what Christian rock needs to be. I tend to get sick of the constant feel-good Christian rock that gets played on the radio. How family-friendly it has to be. It’s like Christian rock has to never show struggle or wavering faith. Everything is happy all the time. Well Tenth Avenue North made a statement with this album, and that statement is that everyone struggles in life, especially in faith. There are many times in one’s life that a Christian will say “I don’t know if I can do this anymore". They feel broken down and beaten. This is an album that expresses true, real, Christianity. That isn’t to say that praise songs have no place, because they absolutely do. There is joy. But there is also sorrow. The best song on this album, for me, is “Worn", a ballad about being beaten down and tired, being worn as it were. This is an album that is absolutely worth listening to. The music is great and the lyrics are beautiful.
