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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.6/100, a mean average of 76.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.5.

scrpit of the bridge is miles above this "inhibited" one. it feels like they are a bit disoriented and don't know what to do with the songs...

The best track, "Perfume Garden" is unlisted. The tracklisting is all wrong anyway. Whatever, very good record, and an improvement on their first.

Not quite as good as "Script of the Bridge" but nonetheless a truly great album

If only they were as good as their reputation, the album is passable but the over-wrought singing and over exaggerated lyricism is embarrassing. However, In Shreds is a good song.
