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 76.9/100, a mean average of 76.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.1.

Big fan of Steven Wilson and all of his many projects, but this one isn't for me. Far too long, slow and boring. The only two tracks I wouldn't skip are Deform To Form A Star and Like Dust I Have Cleared From My Eye.
A solid sophomore solo outing from Steven Wilson. There are some real gems here - like Index, No Part of Me, and Deform to Form A Star - but Wilson wouldn't truly find his identity as a solo artist until the next two albums.
This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.
Like Dust I Have Cleared From my Eye is the best way to end an album. ever.
The jury is still out on this one. There are some real classic tracks like Index, Deform To Form A Star and Raider II, but the question remaining is should Mr Wilson have consolidated this onto a single disc by removing some of the tracks?
