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 72.7/100, a mean average of 71.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.7.

When you have a band conceive an album about an alien planet and its extinct civilizations odds are its going to come somewhere in the 70s .
This albums is both charming and infuriating. Musically it feels like ELO and Genesis had a child which came out as Sgt Pepper. Its not bad but others were doing similar things.
That being said when theres highes their great , but when theres lows there low.
Favorite track
Loneliest of Creatures
Dislike track
Long live Politzinia
An ambitious and well-executed release by this Canadian progressive pop-rock outfit. Perhaps they overextend slightly to deliver on the narrative, but it remains a stellar follow-up to their debut. Fans of the Beatles, David Bowie, and ELO should enjoy!
I do not hesitate to call this the greatest album I have ever heard. Everything on this album reaches heights I never thought was possible, and culminates perfectly in every way.
Well put, galileo1957!
One of the great Progressive Albums of all time. This was the groups second release, and tremendously polished for 3 young Canadians coming off of a solid incognito debut.
The Album tells the story of a Planet somewhere in the cosmos that self destructs ... and leaves behind the loneliest of creatures. The Music takes you on a roller coaster, From Beatles type(Harrison Style) ballads, to Genesis complexed tale telling, to Queen style classical rock. It is a breath taking masterpiece, well worth adding to ones Progressive/Art Rock Collection. Long Live Politzania!
