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 is rated in the top 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.6/100, a mean average of 76.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.3.

An excellent progressive album which writhes and turns like a snake on hot sand! The musicians in this supergroup are clearly at the top of their game. It never sounds like everyone is scrambling for the limelight which can sometimes be a trend with supergroups. The shared vocal duties between the different vocalists keep it fresh. I know some people get hung up on the over religious lyrics but it doesn't spoil the experience for me, in fact I tend to listen to the instrumentation more than the lyrics anyway.
