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 18% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.0/100, a mean average of 74.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.3.

Fantastic blend of thrash combined with NWOBHM stylistics. I prefer this over Part 1.

Inigualable, la perfecta definición de Power Metal europeo. La perfecta continuación a un sobresaliente primer volumen de la saga del guardián de las siete llaves. El perfecto disco de Helloween. Si en la primera edición el mérito compositivo se lo llevaba Kai Hansen, esta vez el turno de llevar el peso de la composición recayó sobre los hombros de Michael Weikath, formando esa unión que el humano rompió pero que el tiempo jamás hará. El álbum está plagado de himnos y es, de largo, el mejor ejemplar en la historia del Power Metal. Este sería el último disco con Kai Hansen en la banda, y la verdad es que ya nada fue como al principio, pues Helloween cambió radicalmente su concepción y tuvieron que pasar muchos años para que los alemanes volvieran a ofrecer un material de calidad, aunque nada que supere a esta joya inmortal.

This is a better album than the first one. Eagle Fly Free and March of Time, in particular are insanely catchy and outrageous.

A sequel just as bonkers and brilliant as the first. Totally ridiculous metal, a kind of hybrid of Iron Maiden and Queen. Great fun songs in, Dr. Stein, rise and fall, and, March of time. Unbelievably catchy.

As far as power metal goes, this is as good as it gets. Every song is great. Better than the first one. Particularly listen to Eagle Fly Free, Dr Stein, March of Time, and I Want Out.
