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 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.4/100, a mean average of 74.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.3.

I understood this album only from second time.
Here are Avangard from The Residents, Psychedelic from CAN, Punk from Stooges.
Nirvana was conceived on this album
horrendous

Non mi sono mai sentito meno debitore nei confronti di questo esordio dei P.I.L. rispetto a quanto mi sentissi nei confronti di "Never mind the bollocks"
Best Tracks: Public Image, Theme

The dawn of Post-Punk, along with The Scream by Siouxsie and the Banshees and Real Life by Magazine.
John Lyndon Tried to change.. But wow this change is just too radical. I didn't liked so much as i expected. sometimes it looked boring or depressing but it just need to be re-listened . Sometimes he can back to the old "SP" times, but it hardly happens. There is a great instrumentation on this album, with cutting guitars and a different but great bass. "Public Image" Is one of the biggest and best songs of the 70s though.
This is P.I.L.'s best lp imo, Religion, Public Image, & Annalisa are highlights.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
