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 1% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 84.1/100, a mean average of 82.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.8/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 16.8.

I wish I was as fun and cool as they seem to be.

James Murphy has been in a perpetual state of midlife crisis for 15 years
Every album is worth it's weight in gold. Besides that, they're the best band live ever and JM is probably the lyricist of all time. This band is the essence of post modernist music: it's contradictory, it's full of raw feelings and it's just fun. It doesn't have to make sense, it can all be just a handful of colors in a memory of a young you dancing with a girl that you never saw again. This band is that. It's music for a memory of a random party that you remember more and more sadly as your life goes on.
LCD stands for Large Cuddly Duck, but I don't know why

I love this! It's dance music, but it's actually really good. If this music was played at all dances and clubs and stuff instead of just dance versions of the billboard top 20, then they would be fifteen times better. It's the perfect mix of great lyrics, catchy beats, and talented composition. I really hope Murphy comes out of retirement. Cause we need more of this.

I feel like we haven't seen the last of them. After all, when do retirements actually stick?
so so so so so so good
Amazing, amazing band. James Murphy is a genius.

For a dance outfit they have some incredible lyrics. Stuff that resonates with me in a very rare way
All My Friends is my favorite song of all time.
