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 9% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.9/100, a mean average of 74.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.8.

Fantastic songwriting - magical
One of my largest disappointments ever. Why don't I like it?!
Loved Steve McQueen and From Langley...
It's highly unadvised anyone make an album 60+ minutes long unless it's this fuckin bangin

One of my favourite albums of all time. This 19 song epic has grown better with time, it is now considered their best (Steve McQueen a close 2nd). The stand out tracks being Lookin For Atlantis, We Let The Stars Go, Wild Hoses, Doo Wop In Harlem & Carnival 2000. Hear how Paddy McAloon's lyrics/songs cover his preoccupations with Love God & Elvis. A sprawling double album well worth a few listens before you judge it.
Probably my favorite album of all time. It evokes wonderful feelings - purely magical sound and singing.

There's some incredible song writing in this pop opera.
