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 75.7/100, a mean average of 75.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.8/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 18.8.

Criminally underrated band. Memorable riffs, killer tone, repetition is effective and song structures are for the most part well crafted. Really soulful, and centred around very real struggles. Good balance to the role of members and instruments sonically. Personally, their struggle to keep making music at all elicits real sympathy and empathy, and they do simply put out really great rock. All of the members are talented and harness it to end up with nice work, unfortunately not all of it has the same effect as the "quality" of the work often seems to be dampened by events they are going through.
They never sound exciting to me. Gretchen Goes To Nebraska has some good bits and Dogman has some too.

Meh...
The most underrated band in rock, IMO. Fantastic harmonies, guitar work, and drum patterns.
