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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.4/100, a mean average of 75.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.1.

Pedrada bem dada é isso!
No fillers, just killers never applied more to an AC/DC album.

If you’re not big into 70s hard rock (or even if you are), don’t fall for all these comments swooning over this album. It’s dull, unlistenable crud. If you’ve heard any of their other albums, than you’ve heard this one, but slightly better.
Akin to what’s called a book move in chess, they’re just regurgitating their previous albums here. Find something more rewarding to listen to.
Best album of AC/DC (along with Highway to Hell). One of the greatest up tempo rock & roll albums of all time, apart from the fantastic bluesy 'Down Payment Blues'. This is when they were at there absolute prime. All killer, no filler.
90/100
Sensational AC/DC album, all tracks here are good, patent riffs by angus and Bon power vocals
Must listen to!
A classic Album. Together with "If You Want Blood" my gateway to the world of AC/DC. Still better than everthing after "Back In Black"!

Raw, angry, primordial. Sometimes bluesy but in a powerful way. Absolutely AC/DC's peak of creativity. One of my favorites, probably my favorite from AC/DC. Underrated for some reasons I don't get.
Best Songs: Sin City; Riff Raff; Gone Shootin' (!!!)
Favorite Songs: Gone Shootin'; Down Payment Blues
Worst One: the first track, probably because it was written with the purpose to become a hit in order to impress the record company. It's a good song though.
This is a blinder of an album with not a weak track in sight. This could well become my favourite Bon Scott AC/DC album putting it above Let There Be Rock, which I also hold in high regard.
This is one album I just have to give a 10/10. It's in my top three of all time and is pure, unadulterated AC/DC in the middle of their prime. Lack of a hit single may turn off some people from caring for this album, but it grows on you until you realize just how damn perfect it is.
