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 81.3/100, a mean average of 77.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.7/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 12.7.

FREAKY STYLEY. This is the only chart on the website with it in! Most under-rated album ever

Thanks! :) I love all kinds of music, so I hoped it would show in the charts. There are about another 50 albums that I would have loved to put on there, hahaha.

I love The New Pornographers! You're right - they're hugely overrated. Which is a shame, because they're an amazing band!

You have a very unique and varied chart. I briefly had both Look Sharp and Twin Cinema on my chart as well. The New Pornographers are so underrated!
