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 5% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 78.5/100, a mean average of 77.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.0/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 15.8.

Yeah, only one album, but what an album! Some groups have released more than ten albums and haven't got more than one idea (coughs UB40). How do you rate a band who have only released one album?? I put the cursor over number 90 and clicked. Easy.

The best album is Since I Left You.
I don't get some of you, how do you rate a band that has only released one album?
Really a hip album for the youth of the year 2000 generation
Despite only releasing three albums during their three-decade spanning career (with the second album famously being released 16 years after the debut), this Melbourne, Victoria group have made a huge impact in electronic music with the groundbreaking 'Since I Left You' being arguably the most influential plunderphonics record of all time. The two other studio albums are definitely worth checking out too
In my opinion without a doubt one of Australia's greatest and most important music artists
