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 72.3/100, a mean average of 72.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.1.

Uhhh yeah I don't think the boys fare well with bland sophisti-pop. "Release" has its moments, but the synths are desperately missed.

Good pop/synthpop album. Best 10 songs average is 85,0/100 and the album can get good 85/100. Best songs are "Home and dry" and "I get along" both 90/100, followed by "Birthday boy" and "London" both 85/100. All other songs only just good 80/100.

Totally underrated and one of their greatest lp's to rank alongside Please and Actually. In particular, Love Is a Catastrophy is excellent.

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 :(
