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 71.9/100, a mean average of 71.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.8.

The Divinyls best album period
More like a best of rather than studio album , so many killer tracks: "Pleasure And Pain" , "Don't You Go Walking" , "Good Die Young" , "Sleeping Beauty" , "Heart Telegraph"
And to think the album was a difficult conception with the band going through multiple producers and multiple false starts is staggering
Simply awesome and timeless
Not only is this their best album its one THE great Australian albums
