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 61.2/100, a mean average of 56.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 56.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.4.

This is Heart at a deep dip in their career. This album had no hits, and none of the deep cuts scored any love from fans. It is certainly not their most imaginative or commercial effort.
