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 is rated in the top 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.2/100, a mean average of 73.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.5.

Pestilence is their best song on their original pressing; Awakening of the Gods is one of their best songs ever alongside Enemy of God.

Wish they have kept their Slayer inspired proto death-metal horror vibe on their next records. However the vocals and playing definitely improved, they went for a more basic thrash sound.

My favourite metal-album of all-time. This is what got me into the harder stuff.

I purchased this Masterpiece on its release and everyone thought I was insane, but I'm still here living the dream and still listening to this on the same piece of Vinyl
