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 76.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.8.

Badly under-rated album, 747 and Wheels of Steel are great tracks.
I have this on vinyl and often give it a spin. 747 and Wheels of Steel are the best tracks. However, I much prefer the 'Killing Ground', 'Dogs of War', 'Lionheart' et al era.
Saxon had a great three albums in two years starting with this one. Then they died.
