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 71.3/100, a mean average of 70.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.4.

This album sounds the same throughout. Too much the same

Ramones 6th album flies under the radar but it was a return to form after the Phil Spector collaboration. If you’re a fan you are still safely on board the train.

Underrated album, as can be said for a good portion of 80's Ramones albums. Favorites: The KKK Took My Baby Away, She's A Sensation, Come On Now, This Business Is Killing Me.

Probably the most overlooked album in The Ramones catalog. Best known for The KK Took My Baby Away, but all Quiet on the Eastern Front and 7-11 are great songs too.

after the collaboration with phil spector didn't bring the hoped-for success, the ramones were received the next strange relationship to producer graham gouldman. out came a record with as many pop-punk-songs as "end of the century" already had. if you listen very carefully, you can detect a slightly difference between the two albums. but imo that difference is so marginal, that both are equal.
