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 66.1/100, a mean average of 63.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 63.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.8.

Torture and State Of Shock are cool songs (though nothing exceptional), but the rest of the album is so cheesy it's difficult to listen to. After hitting it really big with Thriller (which on the other hand is an amazing album), I doubt Michael really wanted to go make another album with the Jacksons. At least he seems to care very little for Victory, and it ended up being his final album with the boys (who realesed another album in 1989, titled 2300 Jackson Street before giving up). But of course Victory became a best seller (in fact the group's best selling) due to Michael being on it, after the mega success of Thriller.
Released after Thriller this is a pale imitation. State of Shock and Torture are by far the best tracks here. Be Not Always & Body are not bad but the other 4 tracks are forgettable.

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 :(
