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 69.4/100, a mean average of 66.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.5/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 10.0.

I think kinda the same as junodog4: They used to be a revelation, the new comin' of the glam! but only the first 2 albums become "something". After the disband and reunion they have lost the spark. I like some songs of Hot Cakes and Easter is Cancelled, but you can feel how the power is gone, and in their last album to date (Motorheart) you can hear them kinda tired...

Have all the attitude of a late 70's supergroup, but very little of the required song writing ability.

At the time, they seemed like a fresh take on a glam sound. Now, they sound dated. Won't be remembered as time goes by.
