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 22% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.0/100, a mean average of 72.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.6.

Adorations and Love Of The Masses are the best tracks, not that the rest of the album isn't good too, but those are the best two tracks.
Killing Joke have done some great albums but this is unlike anything else in their catalogue. More commercial, more produced, damn! just more dancey. Complete surprise but classic none-the-less. Great live band as well.

Top album. Lots of really good tracks on this.
