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 65.3/100, a mean average of 63.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 63.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.4.

11th best Def Leppard album?!!!! No way, this is second best (only behind High N Dry which is also underrated) This album could've been just another shot to the grave for hair metal, but they switched up their style, made it more streamlined and muddied up the production, I just love this album and every Def Leppard fan should give it a listen. The title track is a competitor for Pour Some Sugar on me, Truth? is a straight up banger, Work it out is my personal favorite with a nice slow burning melody, and All I want is everthing is a song that classic Leppard Fans will eat up.
