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 12% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.8/100, a mean average of 75.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

The best from Peter Hammil dischography by far...
"A Louse is not a Home" may be my all time favorite song, or at least in the top 5. Peter Hammill really doesn't hold anything back here (He never does). Modern and Forsaken Gardens are also incredible. Really the whole album is. Everything is so meaningful here.
In many ways, the most vdgg-like of Hammill's solo works. Modern and Louse could easily work with Pawn Hearts. Wilhelmina another example of his fine eye for a great lyric. A man at his songwriting peak.
A good one among the early PH canon. This is only for proghead. Less of an aural attack than your typical VdGG album but similar in feel.
