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 70.4/100, a mean average of 68.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

A strong first album. Very consistent.
not worth a listen
[i]Fistful of Metal [/i] provides the transitional album that Metallica never provided - halfway between Priest/Maiden worship & thrash. Of course, Priest/Maiden worship is not a bad thing at all.
