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 is rated in the top 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.4/100, a mean average of 76.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.7.

Not too heavy, not too light. Good memories of discovering Pantera with this anlbum and keeping me semi- interested in metal as the wave of Grunge came crashing in.

Musically superior to Vulgar Display of Power, more variety and some genuinly great songs like the title track, Cemetery Gates, Domination and Primal Concrete Sledge.

Great album. When I was younger I used to detest Phil's high vocals, now I like them! Cemetery Gates and Domination may be the best songs Pantera has ever done.

My favorite Pantera record, the production is amazing and all 4 members sound great. Some of Dime's best riffs and solos, and Anselmo's vocals are off the charts. It is definitely their thrashiest record, which is probably one of the reasons it is the Pantera album I go back to most frequently.
