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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.7/100, a mean average of 77.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

I was never the biggest fan of Judas Priest but this album rocks: one of their best for sure
I first listened to this thing when it came out. It was my first Judas Priest album and I thought it was great. 8/10.
I've since become a big fan of the band, and I've listened to most of their classic period albums. Top notch classic heavy metal. Last night I put this album on, and it blew my mind all over again. I think it might be one of their best albums with some of Rob's best vocals and songwriting to date. It's really heavy too, probably their heaviest album to date, including Painkiller. It's amazing to see a band accomplish something like this so late into their career.
Readjusting my score to a 9.5.

Firepower's a fantastic song, can't wait for the album! And poor Glenn Tipton...
Edit: Priest stole the show. Album of the year currently.

What an epic comeback! This is the greatest Judas Priest album since Painkiller! It's easily my favourite metal record of the 2010s!
