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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.9/100, a mean average of 72.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.4.

28 minutes that flew by. Fast-paced garage rock. Kind of like listening to the Rolling Stones on 3x speed. Enjoyed it. The main singles, Hate To Say I Told You So and Main Offender, are the highlights, but there a few other decent little ditties in there too. No real weak tracks, although Find Another Girl sticks out like a sore thumb.

Hi tempo garage surf rock. The faster paced songs are the better ones. Haven't quite got the slower numbers sorted. Good length album. Any longer would start to venture into the sounding all to similiar territory

A very fun and energetic album with several excellent songs. But having seen them live, everything sounds much more tame on record. I have a similar opinion of other Hives albums. Hate to bring their rating down cause I really like them as a band, but the albums always lack something. That being said, there's nothing better than playing Veni Vidi Vicious and Tyrannosaurus Hives back to back when you're feeling down.

A solid rock album. The highlight is the 1-2-3 punch of "Main Offender", "Outsmarted", and "Hate To Say I Told You So".

We listened to this album in 2001 and it was so great. 12 songs, 30 minutes, no boring minute

Hives overachieve on their smirking attitude. Their charm gives them extra points in my book.

Hysterical modern punk, absolutely marvelous. It's brutal, catchy, quick, and in the end a lot of fun. As far as 21st century's punk go, this is the best I know.
