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 73.3/100, a mean average of 72.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.3.

2nd album for the band has original guitarist Michael Schenker leaving and Uli Roth coming aboard. The album opener Speedy’s Coming is a fun straight forward rocker the rest of the album is progressive with long jams showcasing Roth. It’s an interesting listen much different than where the sound of the band was headed.

A step up from their debut, but they still haven't locked onto their signature sound yet. Best Track: Fly People Fly
