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 74.0/100, a mean average of 72.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.9/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 22.7.

Love this band - have loved "Stray" for over 30 years and it is still one of my 'go to' albums when I need to feel young again. Roddy Frame's voice and songwriting is a joy to hear and to behold.

Very underrated Band. Roddy Frame an excellent songwriter.
Despite popular belief the Aztecs did not take photos
Started out great, the boy wonder of the UK indi music circa 1982, with a ubercool Postcard Records pedigree, made three classic singles and a much heralded debut album. Then signed to WEA for pots of money, was mismarketed and suffocated into irrelevance by the beginning of the 'nineties. Last couple of albums were bland, pleasant and forgottable (looking at the site).
