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 74.3/100, a mean average of 73.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.1/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 16.6.

Only got into them in 2016 and love their electronic and psychedelic pop tunes. I saw them live in 2018 and thought they were great unlike some others comments. It was a small and discreet venue and an intimate show that got the crowd pumping with the Oracular Spectacular hits in particular
Live show was not that great. Self-titled was a weird bad move and Little Dark Ages may be their all time best.

It's bands like MGMT that people need to be looking out for. Always innovative and creative, and you never know what's going to happen next. Oracular Spectacular was a great Indie Psychedelic Pop album, and people say Congratulations wasn't as good, but I think it's equally magnificent. Less commercially friendly, but the same amount of skill. Their third album wasn't as focused, but it's still worth listening. Overall, a great Psychedelic Pop band that should be looked out for more.
Best album: Oracular Spectacular
Worst album: MGMT

One more solid album would make these guys much more memorable. As it is, I find them like a quick burst of fun.
