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 69.7/100, a mean average of 69.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

The only track to make the top 40 (in a few countries like Canada, Finland, etc.) from this album was Sex, and it does stand out as a good song. The Metro is probably the best song here. I do remember hearing both these songs on the radio, but probably not when they were actually current. The rest is mostly fine, but the last track, "Torture"... let me just say it's appropriately named.

Berlin came out of the gates with their best album. "Masquerade" and "The Metro" were both top 20 hits. The remainder of the album had a somewhat samey feel, but was exquisite '82 synth pop. Terri Nunn had a babyish delivery that sells these songs.

A repetitive new wave album with one hit and the rest are duds.
