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 has a Bayesian average rating of 64.8/100, a mean average of 60.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 62.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.7.

I didn't mind this album and I'm glad i ignored the bad reviews i heard, always use your own judgement, i found this album not too bad, sure it had a strange Mi-sex sound to it here and there but remember it was 1980! so it was the trend to make weird tunes on the the keyboard etc, sure some songs are 50/50 and dated like "Roller skating but there is some great tracks to be honest, "Jumping" has a great bass tune that just grows on you yet you can't help hearing this Madness sax tune in it but it's great anyway, honesty this album is worth the listen, it proves that Michael's voice is and was the backbone of this band.

INXS - the beginning....from this to Stadium Rock in seven years - if you think this is going to be what INXS were best known for you'd be disappointed, I think, but its an album that I do enjoy listening to. No sign of the funkier rock here, but an intriguing listen for those who fancy listening to a bit more INXS.
