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 67.7/100, a mean average of 66.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.3.

This is a very solid debut rock album from bon jovi at the rise of hair metal. I was very surprised at how well this thing rocked, how catchy all of the songs are, how well they rock as good as hit single "runaway", all the way through.

The beginnings of the world's largest poodle rockin' outfit. A good, albeit not greatly dated, effort.
If you've heard this record you've heard all their records.
