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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.0/100, a mean average of 70.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.7.

Had this tape but was never a favourite and this style was on the wane by then. GNR had made the ultimate record associated with this type of thing a couple of years earlier. The only way to go was more production, dumber (see lyrics) and just try and sound like you are having the best dumb rock n roll time ever. I guess the singles do bring that vibe and are enjoyable with good riffs. Ok for what it is.

As a Crüe fan, I have to say I don't like this album. The production is really good, the title track and Kickstart are amazing songs. For the most part, the band is out of their lane with the groovy blues style they try and go for here. Not for me.

A good album made by a dumb band trying really hard. Production is fantastic - songwriting like most Motley Crue songs is serviceable. The title track, "Kickstart My Heart and "Same O' Situation" are the best tracks on the album. "Without You" is a guilty power ballad pleasure for me.

Vince Neil really nails the most fast, hard-rocking songs. It's the slower songs were he kinda lets the band down.

Produced by Bob Rock.
Worst than many albums from that years, anyway a pretty good hard rock album, with no many hits.

T.N.T. had some really impressive studio work in it for its time in my opinion. Otherwise... this really isn't my thing. Kickstart My Heart had a decent guitar tone... but the songwriting is really weak.

The album is far from diverse, but at least the tracks are different enough. Dr. Feelgood had many hit tracks including the perfect title track, the exciting Kickstart My Heart, the Aerosmith-style Slice of Your Pie, and Rattlesnake Shake.
