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 72.1/100, a mean average of 71.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

Trip hop suits these moody technicians perfectly. Other than that, the album opens with some synthpop, and on the third track they flaunt their house skills, on "Superhuman" a jazzy bass pattern forms the basis of a track that can only be described by "electronica"; it seems that they have abandoned their hardcore (not the genre) techno roots. But they were always more than just techno.
The overly evangelical themes are back as if they never left, though.
