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 75.9/100, a mean average of 76.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.1/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 15.7.

Clever pop duo with an occasional good song and tons of filler.

Why so underrated here? Along with Simon & Garfunkel, the greatest duo in rock. Abandoned Luncheonette, War Babies and Daryl Hall & John Oates are pop masterworks!

Amazing music, perfect pop. Abandoned Luncheonette is a gem. Extremely underrated on this site.
They were involved with Maneater which was a fantastic song!

Okay, so they've never yet put out a really great album (although VOICES comes damn close to being "great") These guys were blue-eyed soul at it's Philly-influenced best. The songs are catchy, passionate and you KNOW you sing along to each one when you hear it on the radio. They are the most successful duo in rock history and there's a reason for that: they're good.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
