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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.3/100, a mean average of 73.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.0.

"Ever" is great, the rest of the album didn't do much for me.

This album did for sludge metal and grunge what Fun House did for punk (and also seemingly just as polarizing). Not to mention it's super loud and in-your-face.

41 minutes of Noise Rock heaven!

Please give this at least 3 listens before making a judgement, almost nobody enjoys it on the first listen. It grows on you like you wouldn't believe. I honestly love every song, and it's incredibly cohesive and surprisingly diverse.

One of the most underrated punk albums ever. This is pure fury, which ends up sounding a little silly at times (the vials on the first two tracks) but is unrelenting. Sex Bomb might be the greatest punk song ever - horns are something that are lacking in punk, which is weird considering how great Fun House is. And really this is Fun House's more obscure little brother, which is a huge compliment.
