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 has a Bayesian average rating of 72.0/100, a mean average of 71.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.9.

Great album. I used to listen to it while playing Techmo Bowl and I had a sick Mullet goin on.

I'm not qualified to judge 80s "pop-metal," but this seems generic even for that genre...

WINGS OF TOMORROW is a decent debut for Europe and certainly a better than average Pop-Metal album. The main point of interest for me was John Norum's guitar playing, which elevated the performances above many of their Hair Metal contemporaries. "Scream Of Anger" is the highlight for me and the most aggressive track on the album. The instrumental "Aphasia" is also interesting if you're a guitarist like myself.

Europe peaked commercially with The Final Countdown. But in their fans eyes, they peaked musically with Wings Of Tomorrow. Great rock album with wonderful tunes and toned down keyboards. The first side is great. Particular favs are Stormwind, Scream Of Anger, Open Your Heart and Wings Of Tomorrow.
