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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.3/100, a mean average of 73.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.3.

Not sure why this is rated so low in their discography. It's one of my favorites.
Of course „The Zoo“ is the signature song of this solid album, but „Make it real“, „Don‘t make no promises“ and „Lady Starlight“ are catchy, too. Quite irritating cover-artwork by Hipgnosis.

Decent album but more of a placeholder between Lovedrive and Blackout. It’s lacking that big song except for perhaps The Zoo.
I am surprised that this album is sitting in 14th position. As far as I'm concerned it's up there with Blackout and Lovedrive. First two tracks are awesome! 'Lady Starlight' is a personal favourite.
The last 3 songs are the best for me here. Can't hear the edge most of the albums before it had.
