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 10% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.8/100, a mean average of 74.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

The best from Peter Hammil dischography by far...
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.
