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 19% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 76.4/100, a mean average of 75.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.9/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 11.7.

Currently one of the best out there right now. Former guitarist of The War On Drugs, so if you are fan of that brand of dreamy, laid-back music you should check him out.

Smoke Ring is my favorite album of all time and Wakin is up there too.

Walking on a Pretty Daze and Smoke Rings for My Halo are great album names. They capture the tone and mood of his music perfectly.
