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 72.7/100, a mean average of 72.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.3.

One would think this kind of slick, perfectionist production and The Ramones would be a terrible fit, but it's a surprisingly good combination. Spector really taps into the band's "pop" side without diluting them at all. Love this album ! (Edited)
The Ramones are all polished up on this record by Phil Spector, and they sound great! Danny Says is one of my favorite Ramones tracks!
I read that Ramones beat out Van Halen to star in "Rock N' Roll High School." Both bands always sound like 13-year old delinquents, but if you love the Ramones, there's a little bit of "haven't we heard this before?"
Very good album
listening to this, it is going round and round in my brain: imagine an album 50% phil spector, 50% ramones: it seems impossible to focus - but listening to end of the century is exactly what it is... funny.
Great album a different RAMONES here thanks Phil Spector
