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 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.1/100, a mean average of 74.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.5.

Such a steady rhythmic trance rock flow throughout. This gelled with me quicker than any other Dandy's album has. Great long distance driving album. Few tracks have a bit of an alt Lou Reed feel about them. Some other killer tunes besides the obvious hit. (Edited)

The album is a great listen with many catchy tunes and atmospheric rock. Bohemian Like You remains one of my fav tracks of all time. (Edited)

American Brit-Pop at it's best. Rated too low on this site. Derivative yes, boring, no way. For me this album is far more enjoyable than the far from derivative Kid A. (Edited)

"Bohemian Like You" is a really great song but the rest of the albums sounds boring and derivative (album rating: 36,92 %) (Edited)

Every one knows Bohemian Like You and rightly so it’s a terrific song. As for the rest of this album IMO it’s so so with a bunch of average tracks. Welcome To The Monkey House is my preferred DW album
