Average Rating = (n ÷ (n + m)) × av + (m ÷ (n + m)) × AVwhere:
av = trimmed mean average rating an item has currently received.
n = number of ratings an item has currently received.
m = minimum number of ratings required for an item to appear in a 'top-rated' chart (currently 10).
AV = the site mean average rating.

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 75.4/100, a mean average of 73.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.4/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 20.2.

The biggest rock band in the world, and not without reason. Not the most exciting or innovative, or the most good, but they show more willing to shake up the formula than most in their position and deserve respect for that.
The most mid rock group ever. Not awful, not great. Completely average.

Kurt Cobain must be turning in his grave when hearing this uninspired, generic radio rock.

RIP Taylor Hawkins. So sad.
The loss for his family matters even more, but I wonder how the Foos can keep going.

I saw them live with a friend who is a much bigger fan than me. Had a great time, they know how to put on a show! Their albums are decent, but they're pretty samey both between songs and between albums. Consistency is both a blessing and a curse in this case, as there's generally not enough of a shift in sound between their albums to keep me interested. Still, respect for doing what they do and having a fairly unique and recognisable sound within mainstream rock.

Love this band but i find their greatest hits album most appealing.
A very hit and miss band with no 'solid' albums but a few pretty good ones (The Colour and the Shape, Echoes, Wasting Light).
The Colour and the Shape acted as a template for their entire career: rock albums with anthemic singles and decent filler. Though it's disappointing that they haven't really evolved their sound, they are very good at what they do

One of the greatest bands I've ever seen. Their live performance is really awesome!!

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
