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 14% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.3/100, a mean average of 73.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

This album rocks a lot harder than I was expecting...it's even heavy and aggressive at times. The riffs aren't necessarily anything to tell your grandchildren about, but the album as a whole is a lot of fun.
Cracking debut album, replicas is better but this is still very good. It’s the Numan sound but with a bit of rock about it...we’ll worth a listen. (Edited)
Underrated classic. If you like Gary numan's 'replicas' which was released a year after this album, you should enjoy this debut album. (Edited)
