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 74.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.9.

im sorry but I think this is good,really good.ive tried to not like it.but I think its one of his best albums.
Bowie has gone for a story here but I haven't really bought into it to be honest - but take away all those bits and we have some pretty seriously good songs that grow on me more and more. I was always there with I Have Not Been To Oxford Town - with echos of the Low era. I always enjoyed the sweeping Thru' These Architects Eyes and Strangers When We Meet too. Then grew into Outside, The Hearts Filthy Lesson, Hallo Spaceboy and We Prick You.
One day I will listen to this album without the Segues
I don't think this is a bad album whatsoever, but I just couldn't get into it. Maybe upon relistens I'll like it more.

One of my top 3 Bowie albums (along with Low and Blackstar)
What you have to love about Bowie is that he never stood still, always trying something new. This is a great album (except the annoying 'comic' interludes.
Top tier Bowie, incredibly underrated. I’m only taking off 5 points as a technicality. Easily his best of the 90s
Different and very interesting.
im sorry but I think this is bad,really bad.ive tried to like it.but I think its one of his worse albums.
I don´t understand why critics don´t use to talk about this album as one of the best of his career. It is his most ambitious, complex, conceptual, interesting and longest album.
I really think it's one of his 5 greatest masterpieces.

A good album from an unstable Bowie's era, produced by Brian Eno.
A Small Plot of Land and I'm Deranged are tremendously good songs!
