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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.0/100, a mean average of 76.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.9.

I only listened to this album because my album listening project where I go through all the major albums of each year since 1950 and now I'm in the year 1979 and this album just happens to be on the charts,, Bye

Ahead of its time to say the least, though I do think Jane From Occupied Europe is quite superior. Not that this album isn't noteworthy.

I love the snotty attitude of this album. Very under-rated album, in my opinion.

I love full Moon in My Pocket. It is such a driven song. Manic vocals and a great bass line. This album starts Gee! That's a swell map! and them just keeps going... always changing and evolving. It is restless and twitching. Music to fidget to.
