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 71.2/100, a mean average of 70.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 7.3.

Following henrygreen's comment, I would say that it is a 20-year "half-comeback".
I explain now. This album has standout tracks like "Quiet corners...", "Lovers of the sun" or "Comeback kids". They remind me of two wonderful albums like Rainy Day Music and, to a less extent, Sound of Lies. However, the rest of the album is just OK, and I am being generous ;)
Still, it's nice to have these guys back.
A pleasant surprise from a band that seems to be making a 20-year comeback.
