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)

Fugazi is a seminal American post-hardcore band formed in Washington, D.C., in 1987. They are widely revered not just for their music, but for their strict adherence to a DIY (Do It Yourself) ethics, which redefined the independent music scene.
Key Facts
The Lineup: Ian MacKaye (vocals/guitar), Guy Picciotto (vocals/guitar), Joe Lally (bass), and Brendan Canty (drums).
The Sound: A unique blend of hardcore punk energy, art-rock experimentation, and dub/reggae rhythms.
The Ethics: They famously kept concert tickets at $5 and CDs at $10 for years, refused to sell merchandise like t-shirts, and only played all-ages shows.
The Label: They operated through Dischord Records, an independent label co-founded by MacKaye. (Edited)
The best band of the 90s.
1- Red Medicine
2- Repeater
3- 13 Songs
4- The Argument
5- In On The Kill Taker
6- Instrument
7- Steady Diet Of Nothing
8- End Hits (Edited)
Easily the greatest 90's band (Edited)
Repeater is obviously great, however everything other than End Hits is really special. A terrific band that more people should know about.
Repeater is an underated 90s gem.
