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 85.2/100, a mean average of 84.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 10.8.

Apparently you dislike grunge, but these are all still good choices
Great topping duo - both 'Tigermilk' AND 'If you're feeling Sinister'! Can't go wrong with that!
Very cool indie rock music
As it so happens, I was in the middle of If You're Feeling Sinister–specifically, just beginning "Like Dylan in the Movies"–when I saw this chart was here. It's a good one–the chart, I mean.
I don't like Belle and Sebastian at all, but this is still an interesting chart.
This is a great chart!
Steady but feels like it misses the mark more than hits it, for me anyway.
Nice chart!
Great chart!
Very surprising and diverse, great to se: Music For Egon Schiele!
Magnetic Fields. Ain't nothing wrong with that.
