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 is rated in the top 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.3/100, a mean average of 76.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.1.

I remember Alan Bangs playing versions of Fever in a Radio show once. Many good ones. But Tumor I liked best. But this does not even begin to try to be on one level with her version of Mission Impossible. Simply the best dancing song of all time. (Edited)
Fire was my favorite disco/rock record of that year. Better than Blondie's Atomic even.
Really energetic and fun dance-punk!
Tumeeeeeeeeee !!
