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 75.6/100, a mean average of 74.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.6/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 19.2.

Only one album, but what an album it was.
We needed the Sex Pistols - musicianship was getting too complicated, disco ruled the clubs, and arena rock ruled the airwaves. We needed a group of angry kids to pick up their guitars, and make up for shoddy playing with sneering attitude. Sex Pistols steered us in the right direction.
...but there's so much better music out there. Even within Punk, the Sex Pistols are a second-rate band. Avoiding pretentiousness does not mean that you can't be able to play. Crafting melody does make one a sellout. The Clash, Dead Kennedys, and even the Ramones were much better. The Sex Pistols were influential, but overrated, and their sound hasn't aged well.
reality tv shows.. butter advertisements.. the devil would be proud. seriously, peurile garbage for hormonal automatons.
NEVER MIND THE BOLLOCKS: An absolutely PERFECT album!!!
50/100 for attitude and influence, but let's face it, their music is awful.
