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 charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 85.0/100, a mean average of 82.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 16.1.

Closest List yet to mine with 15 Albums and 12 artists in common. Also I have “ Surfer Rosa “ ranked 2 . Awesome list. Oh and “ American Idiot “ is great, it’s definitely on my list & I completely disagree with Sonicdiscourse’ comment.
wooolf 09/27/2017 17:47
I also have Weezer in my top ten! ..and Twin Peaks rules!
DeusExMackia 06/12/2016 20:13
Weezer? In the top 10? I truly have found someone with unique taste. Very nice selection here!
(Also, 25 albums and 17 artists in common. I like your taste)

You know I typically don't like seeing two albums by the same artist in a row, but I love Pinkerton and the Blue Album almost equally, so I dig it. Nice choices man.
besides the over lovin of a weezer good list
Weezer are such good fun great albums love your list
Really good list. The fact that you have Parallel Lines in the top 10 is awesome. Hella underrated album. More importantly, you're name is twin peaks. Twin peaks was the shiiiiit
Really nice, and varied!
Interesting enough list for me to overlook American Idiot in the top 10.
