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 artists can have several thousand ratings)

This artist is rated in the top 6% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 78.4/100, a mean average of 77.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.2/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 14.4.

One of the greatest hard rock/metal singers ever. Should have been more popular than he was.

Holy Diver certainly is great but let's not forget The Last In Line as well. When one thinks of great metal singers, RJD's name should be one of the first that come to mind. I don't know if that's the case but it should be.

RIP Dio :(
This solo project produced one of the best heavy metal albums (Holy Diver) but I'd say Ronnie's best stuff was with Rainbow.

Maybe the best hard rock singer ever. He should have been a household name throughout rock.
