Rating metrics: Help 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 69.7/100, a mean average of 69.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.6.

Great hard rock/blues rock album. Best 10 songs average is 95,7/100 and the album can get great 95/100. I love it and I can't count how many times I've listened to it. Full scoring: "Livin' on the edge" + "Cryin'" + "Crazy" + "Amazing". Followed by "Eat the rich" 90/100. Notable is also the good instrumental song "Boogie man". Well, let's listen to the album one more time... (Edited)

Overproduced piece from a band trying to keep the momentum up from their prior two realeses, still for some reason most of these songs are usually among the favorites of their fans and I would be lying if I told you I dind't enjoy it. It may not be an essential 90s recording but it is a cultural staple of its period that surprisingly doesn't sound outdated... (Edited)

An enjoyable album, but for a rock band Aerosmith were now becoming better at doing ballads. Cryin', crazy, and, amazing, are easily the best tracks on the album. This is unfortunately something that would become a habit with Aerosmith. Still, its a good record, just a little bit too commercial.

Another great Aerosmith album (fourth best in their catalog). Too commercial for some tastes for sure.

Look past the videos (admit it - Liv Tyler and Alicia Silverstone have never been as hot) and hear the music. This is a fantastic album chock full of dynamite tunes. It's not profound or groundbreaking, it's fun.
