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 76.2/100, a mean average of 73.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.2.

"Love My Way" seemingly put this band on the map, but the rest of the songs on this 1982 album match that track's quality and energy!!! Richard Butler's sneering delivery and the synth-y feel of these songs distinguish them from many similar bands of the era. (Edited)
This album sounds like total crap (it's not the only Todd Rundgren-produced album I would say that about), and the songwriting is uneven to my ears. But there are about five songs that I really like much more than I should. Definitely one of my guilty pleasures. (Edited)
TBC…
