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 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 73.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.9.

Hard to believe that Steven Wilson put out both this and Fear of a Blank Planet this same year. One of the great talents in rock music. Ever. Period.
Not as good as Blackfield, but still a quality effort. However, it appears that the band were running out of ideas for this album. Two of the songs were from earlier times, two songs adaptations from Aviv Geffens solo album and three Steven Wilson songs - probably Porcupine Tree throwaways. Much less song writing collaboration than the first. Favourites: Once,1000 People, My Gift Of Silence and End Of The World.
