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 75.8/100, a mean average of 75.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

Totally cool and fun as hell, it's Devo so yeah it's fun like I said.
My favorite from Devo. Great tempo and flow right through. 'Girl U Want', Gates of Steel' & title track along with 'Whip it' make this a fun foot tapping, head nodding delight. Original one of a kind. Good addition to any music collection for the spice of variety.
This is way too underrated. This is a really solid album, one of the best New Wave records for me. My only issue is that it is a bit too short, but still, this is a great album.
8.5/10
Overall it plays like a less polished, less revolutionary and less enjoyable Speaking in Tongues. It has its moments, but they can be fleeting.
More interesting than their debut, IMO. A lot of fun!
Girl U want, freedom of choice, gates of steel still sound fresh, and of
Course, whip it will always. Solid Lp.
I prefer to punk aspects of the previous LPs. Gone are the raunchy guitar licks and solos. Gone is the raw contempt.
Absolutely Love this album still today. Girl U Want, Snow Ball, Freedom of Choice, Whip It, etc... I can listen to this album start to finish without any skips. Some classic videos also made with this album
Devo produced some of the best pop of the 80's. The production and choice of material on this record is outstanding.
No comments? Seriously? Great songs, very well produced, and catchy as hell. Girl U Want, Whip It, Gates of Steel, Don't You Know, Snowball, the whole thing is excellent.
