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 has a Bayesian average rating of 74.7/100, a mean average of 74.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.4/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 10.8.

Brittany Howard's performances are something else. Makes even their average tracks seem decent-good. Plenty of good, bluesy tracks though.

...as jundog or nutso mentioned before: Cool soul, blues music in the 70´s style.. but really don`t sound like anything new.

Really good bluesy-rootsy band, but really don`t sound like anything new.
Great album. The best of 2012.
An interesting blend of Led Zeppelin, James Brown, and Janis Joplin. Not amazing yet, but loads of potential!
