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 66.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.9.

Highly ranked here but otherwise maligned, perhaps for the jump-on-the-disco-bandwagon scent. But let me tell you, this is Rock Disco (as it is, say Hot Stuff by Donna Summer) and I like it. It's nothing but Glam Hard Rock, right. Most of the songs are earworms. Nobody can resist IWMFLY, of course, but Sure Know Something is a glossy power ballad with Paul on top form (and Magic Touch is close). Ace is everywhere, the now classic cover of the Stones song, personal favourites Hard Times and Save Your Love. Gene delivers something different with Charisma. Even Criss pays off with Dirty Livin' a decent number.

Simply too mediocre to impress the new audience, Not hard or soft rock. I was made is the only memorable song.
Couple of great songs but mostly just generic rock fodder. Not bad but nothing outstanding

I wouldn’t rank this album as high as it is here but it’s another strong showing with their take on disco hit I Was Made For Lovin’ You, Sure Know Something & Hard Times leading the way.

The follow up to the four solo albums sounds like extra tracks from those sessions. Rating (81.67)

It’s catchy I guess
Nowhere near one of their top 5 albums. I suspect this is being rated highly on the back the success of 'I was made.....'

This record seems to slip under the radar for many KISS fans. It is a solid record working with a fine producer in Vini Poncia. It was a great collection of songs but with a maturity in the writing. KISS was following the Beatles template and went for a turn towards more artistry and craft on this while maintaining the heavy metal expectations of the fans. The record gets unfair treatment by being only associated with the big hit "I Was Made For Lovin' You" which leaned heavily in the pop/disco direction...but it was a huge hit...and a great song.
The first three or four tracks are excellent, especially, I was made for lovin' you, and a cover of the Stones 2000 man, but after that it goes swiftly downhill.
