m = minimum number of ratings required for an item to appear in a 'top-rated' chart (currently 10).
AV = the site mean average rating.

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 82.0/100, a mean average of 79.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.9/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 10.6.

pretty interesting chart, a lot of great recent albums. You should listen anything of the Rolling Stones between 68 and 72. Thats what i call rock n roll! Greetings!!
We've got a very similar taste. BUT.. no entiendo como siendo latinoamericano no tienes un solo album de rock en español???
good chart ! from the 90s i suggest Bjork (Debut, Post, Homogenic) as you like radiohead and Beck
Based on that list, I would probably recommend Alice In Chains - Jar Of Flies, Beck - Odelay!, Brian Eno - Apollo, John Lennon - Imagine, Joni Mitchell - Blue, Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin IV, Leonard Cohen - Songs Of Love And Hate, Oasis - Definitely Maybe, Oasis - What's The Story Morning Glory, R.E.M - Automatic For The People, Stone Temple Pilots - Core, Patti Smith - Horses, Tracy Chapman - Tracy Chapman, Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes, The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds, Spiritualized - Ladies And Gentleman We Are Floating In Space, Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream, Smashing Pumpkins - Gish, Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness, Rolling Stones - Let It Bleed, The Beatles - Let It Be, R.E.M - Murmur, Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue, Portishead - Dummy, Nirvana - Nevermind, Pearl Jam - Ten, Keane - Under The Iron Sea, Freedy Johnston - This Perfect World, Animal Collective - Feels, Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavilion.... fuck. Try some of them out.
First of all, nice chart. Now for my recommendations: I recommend Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys, The Who Sell Out by The Who, Let it Bleed by The Rolling Stones, Oddessy and Oracle by the Zombies,any mid-sixties Dylan album, a mid-sixties Kinks album, Piper at the Gates of Dawn by (early) Pink Floyd, Forever Changes by Love, Younger than Yesterday by The Byrds, anything by The Velvet Underground, The first two Doors albums or maybe just a best of comp, anything by Nick Drake. Since you like Wilco, you need to check out Uncle Tupelo and eventually Gram Parsons. I'm pretty sure you'd like Neil Young too--probably, After the Gold Rush is a good starter.
I also recommend The Stooges, The Ramones, The Clash, The Talking Heads, and the album, Horses by Patti Smith. Have fun! Note: I don't think the comment below was very helpful based on what you like musically.
