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 72.0/100, a mean average of 70.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.0.

Good alternative rock/alternative metal album. Best 10 songs average is 87,3/100 and the album can get good 85/100. There are no lows on the album, but several songs seem to have similar structure and sound. However best song is "The funeral of hearts" 95/100, followed by "The sacrament" 90/100. All other songs good 85/100, except opener "Buried alive by love" 80/100 only.
Definitely an album for the ones who like Muse. It's all over the top and the more the charm for that. Poetry and darkness along with good songwriting.
