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 9% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.2/100, a mean average of 76.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.3.

When in the mood for some chill out slowed down music this is the one I will often reach for.

I would like to have heard some more synth string textures behind the acoustic guitar passages but that's just a personal thing.

Some of the bass sequences sound very sililar to Tubular Bells, come on Mike, you could be a bit more creative here, like he's reading this!

Last section of last track makes the album, really uplifting.

Superb production, the vinyl clarity is stunning.

Great soundtrack to a bitter winters evening!
