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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 82.5/100, a mean average of 81.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.7.

A hugely influential album that is so important to the genre and sub genres that it went on to create and impact. However, the quality of the release is a bit up and down with there definitely being better albums made in the styles this album went on to influence. There are some brilliant songs on here nonetheless with Search And Destroy and Gimme Danger being two of my favourite songs the group ever created. Overall, this record is held in high esteem more for its influence than quality in my eyes but it is still a solid and enjoyable listen.

Probably one of the most essential albums in development of punk and rock and roll. This album is an atom bomb of sonic fury. Must listen!

The best Stooges album in my opinion. Probably my favorite song is Gimme Danger and closely comes Serach And Destroy. My least favorites are Shake Appeal and Penetration but they are not very bad either.
