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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.0/100, a mean average of 80.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.3.

This is a perfect example that sometime less is more. A few artists can capture the naive nature of their first recordings after a long-time career, and Numan achieve it. Ok, it's sounds like a bunch of demos, but after the terrible run of overproduced albums since mid-80's, this album feels like a fresh breath of air. The sad part of this release it's that Numan get stuck in this era until 2006, so if you don't like "Sacrifice", maybe you'll hate the next 3 albums. Anyway, Numan says that he pretend to re-record and re-release "Sacrifice", "Exile" and "Pure". I don't thing it will be a good idea because the soul of "Sacrifice" lays in his lo-fi quality and lyrics, so the idea sounds like putting a "reduce noise" filter to the album "Alien Lanes" by "Guided By Voices". I hope get wrong.
nice album for '94 sounds a bit to 1 dimensional
