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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.7/100, a mean average of 75.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.2.

Bob Geldof once famously quoted: “In the UK you had The Pistols, in America you had The Ramones and from Australia there was The Saints”. Seems outrageous that The Saints from the back blocks of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia should be mentioned in the same breath as two punk icons, but on this occasion Bobby Boy was 100% on the money. And in fact The Saints actually predated both The Sex Pistons and The Ramones by a full two years having demoed many of the tracks on this album as far back as 1975 (The Saints guitarist Ed Keupper is quoted as saying when he first heard The Sex Pistols in 77 he thought it was “game over” with his band had been playing the same sound for years prior with little to no recognition)
‘I’m Stranded’ sits not only as a landmark Australian release, its sits as the Big Bang moment for the contemporary punk sound

Another album that shines a BIG BRIGHT LIGHT on the excellence of Australian music ~ in many ways, a trend setter of what was to follow across the globe. (Edited)

If you like punk you'll probably like this. They do play their instruments and sing better than most of the great punk bands though.
Great example of ‘77 punk from Australia. Great gritty vocals, chugging guitars and pummeling beat.
underrated band (Edited)
