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 71.8/100, a mean average of 70.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.7.

Something totally different from the year 1968. A fine departure from the shortlived psych era towards the blooming beginning of prog. This is a very challenging and groundbreaking album, but I think that this is a little know gem beyond the fanbase!
While "Release of an Oath" was not a commercial success upon its initial release, it has since become a cult classic and is regarded as one of the most unique and innovative albums of its time. The album's emphasis on orchestration and its religious themes was ahead of its time. The feeling of the prog vibes is so evident. The
the opening track is simply astonishing! With each listen, this must be the best unknown albums of this genre.
Standout tracks: Holy Are You, Our Father Our King and General Confessional. This is a very short album even for 60¨s but who cares, listen to it! It also sounds very good for its age.
