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 64.7/100, a mean average of 63.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 63.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.7.

They had to capitalize on the success of Cosmic Thing, and I don't blame them. And there's like half a good album here. Tracks 1-4 and 6 are pretty good, but the rest is mediocre at best. Still, a half-good album is better than a bad one I guess? (Edited)

OK this is far more mainstream pop than the more mad-cap early albums but its better than Cosmic Thing (never liked Love Shack) in my opinion. Loved Roam on CT and this has another cracking female vocal with Revolution Earth, the highlight on this album for me, but many good tracks with the weakest being Hot Pants Explosion (still a decent track). A very good pop album that's one of my three favourite B-52's albums.

Not as consistently good as Cosmic Thing but a pretty good record.

My favorite B-52's because Kate Pierson's vocals show through more than on any other album. "Revolution Earth" (track 4) isn't a typical B-52's song, but it is their most beautiful.
