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 22% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.8/100, a mean average of 72.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.6.

This was actually the first Fall album I bought as soon as it was released and also around the time I first saw the Fall live. The previous 8 or 9 years I was into the Fall I was immersed in the 80's albums which were an obvious highlight but this album proved they still had quite a lot to offer.
Initially, 50 Year Old Man was my favourite, that one seems to have faded a little for me as it is a little overlong but there are still quite a few others that are great - Wolf Kidult Man, Tommy Shooter and Alton Towers for example.
