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 86.2/100, a mean average of 86.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.3/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.1.

Glad to see Fear of a Blank Planet and In Rainbows shooting up to the top of the list! Both excellent records.

Have you listened to Cardiacs?

We have a lot of common but I wish you would explore even more. Try Sonic Youth, Fugazi. Like the DFA 1979 addition here so I think you should definitely try Shoegaze and Punk.

15 albums in common, and there will certainly be more once I can expand my chart to 100. Great chart man.
