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 69.8/100, a mean average of 68.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.7.

El Power Metal americano siempre se mantuvo distante con respecto a su hermano europeo, con una base rítmica sólida de poso thrasher que le otorgaba una brutalidad impropia. En Iced Earth se reúne lo mejor de Metallica, Iron Maiden y Judas Priest; todo a la vez. En este disco alcanzaron su cima compositiva tras un buen puñado de discos notables a lo largo de los 90. A pesar de los continuos cambios de formación a lo largo de su trayetoria, en 'Something Wicked This Way Comes' Iced Earth presentó una alineación más o menos estable, liderados por Jon Schaffer y con Matt Barlow como vocalista de excepción. Los riffs del primero son endiablados, de una calidad técnica exquisita; y la voz de Barlow ha sido la mejor que ha pasado por las filas de los americanos, con un manejo en los agudos impecable, cortante como una cuchilla.
