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 72.1/100, a mean average of 72.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.9.

Certainly not the best death metal album. (Edited)
Certainly not for everyone, but for people who like metal, this is an absolute classic. These are some of the catchiest death metal songs ever written. The riffs are so unique sounding, and the vocals are more high pitched than your typical death metal vocalist, it kind of sounds like a demon is singing. The drum performance is athletic. Great album
