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 13% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.4/100, a mean average of 73.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.0.

Great debut!

I absolutely love this album. It's certainly an underrated Queen album on this site.
Underrated debut. First 4 albums were the best Queen.
Definitely an underrated album, Queen didn't take 2 or 3 albums to get it right, but this one definitely isn't as good as albums like 'A Night At the Opera'. Still a really solid debut though.
While they’d develop their ideas more fully with the help of studio technology over subsequent albums, Queen’s basic stylistic elements are already place on their 1973 debut.
Does this contain the best opening track on a debut album ever? I think it might....that could be a forum topic! I must admit to liking this heavier Queen sound and (track one aside) there's no real classics here. Still a damn good listen though.
Queen's debut album released in 1973. It's really queen as a heavily influenced Led Zeppelin/Jimi Hendrix combo. It has none of the pop elements that the band would eventually embrace. Opener, keep yourself alive, is off course great, and queen's first classic song. Other highlights are Freddie's, liar, and, great king rat. Brian's, the night comes down, is quite beautiful, and Roger Taylor does his Robert Plant impression on, modern times rock'n'roll. It's a solid start, but nothing special. The signs are there, but it'll take a few more albums before it comes to fruition.
A great debut

Solid debut, but Queen hadn't stretched themselves out yet. They needed a couple of albums under their belt before they were truly confident.
I have no idea why this album's not more highly regarded; it's an amazing debut, and my second favorite Queen record (behind Sheer Heart Attack). Really not a bad song here, and "My Fairy King," "Jesus," "Doing All Right," "Modern Times Rock 'n' Roll," and "Son & Daughter" are innovative, superior rock. Brian May stakes his claim as one of the best guitarists around.
