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 71.8/100, a mean average of 70.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.0.

This is the album that introduced me to hard rock/metal when I was a kid. It will always hold a place in my heart

Gotta say, this is a really solid album. Probably Motley Crue's best and their most perfect blend of heavy metal and glam metal. Motley Crue will always remain a dumb band, but they've got some good hard rocking tunes.

This is a classic for me. Shout At the Devil and Looks that Kill are some of their best songs. Great Cover of Helter Skelter.

I loved this as a kid. It hasn't aged well. Motley Crue is fun, and this album isn't their best. Stick to Feelgood, but only in small doses.

There are some fine hair metal moments on this album from the 80s-awesome "shout at the devil" to their cover of the beatles' "helter skelter" to "SHE'S GOT LOOKS KILL [BUH] [BUH] [BUH]". "Red Hot" and "Too Young To Fall In Love" are pretty cool too, if you're into that sorta thing, which i think beavis & butthead would've been if they started 10 years earlier.
