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 69.3/100, a mean average of 68.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.3.

For a pop/glam metal record this is probably the most enjoyable one. Of course Livin' On A Prayer and You Give Love A Bad Name are very good, iconic tracks, but the rest is not that bad.

Some massive anthems on here that are some of the best material Bon Jovi have ever created but the album on the whole is quite inconsistent. Those few outstanding songs are just so full of quality and energy that it is impossible to not fall in love with them. They infect every person that listens to them and that is why they have become the massive hits that they are. The rest of the album is no way near that same level in my opinion. There are a few songs which come closer but the majority feel like weaker versions of those big songs. They rely too heavily on the choruses on every song for my liking and that leads to them being extremely repetitive and irritating for me. It also leads to most songs feeling a bit copy and paste and I do find myself craving a bit more experimentation. The energy they maintain is fantastic however and I can imagine this would be fantastic to hear live with a big crowd. Overall, I am always a little underwhelmed when I come back to this album, but the elite level songs always make it worth a revisit.

It’s an 80’s Arena Rock Classic with excellent loud production and mixing and takes you back to a time when rock bands still knew how to have fun…….

Surprised I liked this as much as I did. I was sure these songs had worn out their welcome in my ears, but apparently not, and the hair metal sound was a welcome change from the other stereotypical sounds of the 80s

Hair metal or pop metal? Some great tracks on this album, it's the 'party' album that Kiss's Destroyer should have been.
