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 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.6/100, a mean average of 73.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.4.

If you want fast and heavy sounding songs, this is for you. Plain fun and anarchy (Edited)

This album has 8 songs from the debut which lack the raw sound of the original. Ric Ocasek who produced was not able to capture the true essence of the band. That being said it’s still Bad Brains in their prime. (Edited)
