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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.8/100, a mean average of 78.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.8.

When I bought this LP it contained a huge Billion Dollar Bill. Time has passed when I last listened to this. It is so amazing to return to the songs, they are like old friends. This album was played constantly when it was new.
The production values on this album are excellent. the album itself is mean, explicit, bizarre and fun to listen to.
6 songs are absolute bangers and there are no fillers.
Top Tracks:
- Elected
- Hello Hooray
- Billion Dollar Babies
- No More Mr. Nice Guy
- Raped and Freezin.
- I Love the dead
A classic Alice album, everybody should listen this!

Yet another masterpiece from Alice. Again, all killer, no filler. During the early 70's this man was just on fire. His series of albums during this period are the most under rated within the rock world. A fantastic addition to any collection for rock fans.

A very solid and catchy album with some glam anthems like Billion Dollar Babies, I Love The Dead and No More Mr. Nice Guy. Maybe the best effort of Alice Cooper ever made, in an era when his songs were more a group result than just solo works.

With at least 4 classic songs Hello Hooray, Elected, the title track and No More Mr Nice Guy I believe this is the best Alice Cooper album ever.

Possibly Alice Cooper's best album. Generation Landslide in particular is fantastic. Certainly his most underrated track, a contender for the most underrated track of all time.

Alice Cooper's finest hour. Seems he was something of a prophet too. Or am I the only one who noticed how many "brats in battalions" there are in the streets today...and no Colgate invisible shield to be found.

I've always preferred the work the Alice Cooper group did to Alice's solo career. This record helps explain why. This seems like a very collective effort from a group of musicians (including of course Alice himself) showing the world there is more to them than their singer's persona.

Lots of good stuff on here including some classic rock staples like No More Mr Nice Guy and the title track, as well as one of the greatest opening tracks in rock, Hello Hooray, a cover that fits so nicely on the album and Alice's live shows to this day.
