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 16% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 75.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.0.

Brilliant debut EP by Fate. Goes under the moniker Nuns Have No Fun and was rereleased much later as The Beginning.
Four songs and all of them are great. Doomed by the Living Dead and Corpse Without a Soul are standouts.
King Diamond’s voice can grate on novice listeners but the tight rhythms, demonic lyrics and interesting changes in musical patterns are special. Corpse painted Diamond is a sight to behold.
Original artwork on 1982 EP is quite shocking and worth the investment.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
