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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.5/100, a mean average of 74.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.8.

I never listened to this group at the time, but I'm glad I got prodded to do so now. Still kind of a mixed bag for me, but lots to like. I hear a fantastic blend of influences (from 60s guitar band to singer/songwriter to edgy new wave) all nicely tied together with enough variety to hold my interest over the course of a full album.
Four magnificent tracks.
Do you know any other album where the cover reflects the emotions of the songs of the album?

A complete set of magnificent songs.
Really good songs by another great Aussie band who only got recognition by the art scene Great album

The Triffids are one of those Aussie bands that receive recognition in sacred circles and not the mainstream populus. 'Unmade Love' is a great track that holds up today in an underrated album.
