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 70.8/100, a mean average of 69.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.4.

Very good indie rock album. Best 5 songs average is 89/100 and so the album gets 90/100. I like this sound. Best songs are "Cash machine", "Tied up too tight", "Move on now" and "Better do better" all 90/100, followed by "Middle eastern holiday" and "Hard to beat" both 85/100.
Pretty good
Can't find a better example of an average album. The second half is much better than the first. There's a lot of fillers and it doesn't have a very consistent flow, but it's alright nonetheless.

You've heard this brand of britpop/indie rock, but there's something infectious and undeniable about how wonderful these songs are.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
