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 74.9/100, a mean average of 73.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.8/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 17.1.

Les falta pegada.
Love their first album, then the second album was decent, couldn't get into the rest of their albums.
But my main reason for this comment, is to say they are an outstanding live act., which drags up the overall rating a touch.
Oh and Take Me Out is one of the finest songs of the 2000s

Debut, second and FFS are pretty good but the rest is pretty awful. Some really great songs, one of the better indie bands out there

They're very consistent. Their debut was incredible, then their next two were worse, but still enjoyable, and their last album was really weird but I liked it. It's different but interesting.
They're great, no many bands are so consistent in their work, but Franz Ferdinand never get bad or mediocre, they're really good.

Bon groupe , énergique sur scène même si le jeu de scène est un peu stéréotypé. Et plusieurs excellents titres dont le fameux take me out
My favorite indie rock band.
Fairly good band. They have quite a few good songs including take me out(one of my favorites)

A wonderful debut. Fresh, fun and catchy. Great melodies, grabby hooks. Then they stalled in neutral, and recorded the same album twice over. Nothing new from these guys, so they've fallen in my estimation.
