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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.0/100, a mean average of 75.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.7.

Great music! It is the power of the guitar and not that of the machine gun that defines the music in this album. Should be much-much-much higher in the overall chart than 36,242nd... (Edited)

Yet another hidden gem discovered thanks to the fellow users of BEA. Really, really digging this music completely ahead of its time.
This is friggin excellent. Did not expect a record that sounded like this from 1980.

What a sexually deceptive voice if you don't know the musician's gender before listening to this masterpiece! And the content doesn't disappoint at all, for it is absolutely a prime definition on what is "cult".
