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 1% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 85.2/100, a mean average of 87.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.0/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 10.1.

It's not just that the dude is so prolific, it's the fact that everything he puts out is either perfect or just so damn good.
SW is definitely the most talented musician, producer and Rock Star in this day and age. It's a pity that he's not a household name. It really bothers me that none of my friends know who Steven Wilson/ Porcupine Tree is! I'm offended when Record Store owners told me they don't know who Steven Wilson is or told me they have never heard of Porcupine Tree.
I prefer SW and PT's music over Radiohead on any given days.
The unbelievably prolific Mr Wilson. As if Porcupine Tree, Blackfield and Storm Corrosion not enough, he does his own solo stuff as well. Insurgentes is just massive - eerie, powerful, atmospheric and emotional. Sheer class. Grace for Drowning is not bad as well
The genius behind Porcupine Tree. Why not just include all of the PT discography on here? Hehe.
