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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.6/100, a mean average of 77.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.9.

I appreciate a lot of the different ground covered on this album, although I still think it could be trimmed by a couple tracks and be a bit better for it.
What’s more worth noting is that this album features a few of the very best examples of Gira’s songwriting and a few of the very most beautiful arrangements in his catalog. Songs like The Garden Hides The Jewel reach similar levels of beauty as the best of the Swans canon, but do so with a different approach.

Underrated gem, I love you Michael Gira
