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 4% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 79.0/100, a mean average of 78.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.4/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 14.3.

Turning suburban, unashamedly middle class boredom into sleazy, downtrodden, catch-all Britpop genius. Fronted by a man who looks like yer dad, while the rest of the band look like they just finished at the office.
And the music? Holy f*cking sh*t is the music good. No band has ever come close to soundtracking the plight of everydayism quite like Pulp.

4 terrific albums - i include we love life as well as the obvious his n hers, different class and hardcore triumvirate. Classy songwriting, interesting lyrically and a true pop icon in Jarvis Cocker. His solos stuff is good as well.

A band that had 10 years to hone their craft before Brit-pop blew up and they were thrust into the spotlight, just as they made their 3 best albums. His & Hers, Different Class and This is Hardcore is all you need.

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 :(
