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 74.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.9.

Very good album. I relate this to Hurry Up, We're Dreaming from last year. Fairly long, double album, with one colossus song, and a whole bunch of pretty decent ones. Few unnecessary instrumental tracks though, and a bit long. Overall, as of April 7th 2012, probably the best album of the year so far.

I fell in love with this after a while, but man... talk about one heck of an album. Yeah, it's a behemoth, and maybe not justified at times, but boy are the highs here incredible. Maybe it's a bit shameful that my favorite song here is their Neil Young cover, but they make it their own in the best way possible. Anyhow, this is incredible. It ought to get more notice.
Kill For Love may be 90 minutes in length but the album glides by leaving the listener wondering where all the time went. Time flies while listening to this long beautiful album. Once I had finished listening for the first time I had to start it over and go through it again. I highly recommend this album.

A hazy universe of ambience scattered with glistening synthpop stars.
