15. Balls To The Wall
Ronnie James Dio may be the king of all rock & roll little guys...but don't sleep on Accept's former lead singer, Udo Dirkschneider. He's a tiny guy with a big metal voice. And Accept is one of those rarities from the 80's...a metal band without a single power ballad in sight! Glory BE!
Staying A Life is a live album recorded in Japan in 1985. It's heavy, it's fast, it's all rock & roll. The band strangely recorded all of their songs in English, even though it's evident that it's not their native language. But the power of this German band shines through here...even through an encore performance of 10 minutes worth of "Balls To The Wall". This may be the best way to experience one of the best and heaviest bands of the 80's. A truly heavy rock document. It does run a bit too long, but it's mostly worth it.

1. Anything, Anything (I'll Give You)
2. Last Cigarette
3. Some Crazy Dame
4. Spare Change
5. Private World
6. Would You Like
Dramarama, from California, released their first two albums on a French label, but got lots of airplay in the US thanks to KROQ in Los Angeles. They were always something of a cult band, but everyone seemed to know who they were, thanks in large part to the hit "Anything, Anything". The best Dramarama album you'll find is this 6 song live EP. Clocking in at under 30 minutes, Live At The China Club is a perfect picture of the band playing their best material, capturing their great live energy. "Anything Anything" and "Last Cigarette" are the songs people know, but the rest are excellent as well. "Private World" is a New York Dolls cover. This disc will leave you wanting more, a perfect introduction to the band.
They broke up in 1994, but got back together in 2003 thanks to the VH1 special Bands Reunited. They have since released an album, but no word on anything more coming. Grab this one if you can find it! [First added to this chart: 05/10/2012]

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 charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart is rated in the top 10% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 87.9/100, a mean average of 90.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.2.
