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 87.0/100, a mean average of 86.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.3/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.0.

We might only have 2 albums in common (The Clash & Midnight Oil), but I love your chart ~ it made me smile as I scrolled through the list. Loved seeing The The & (of course) the Aussie bands. Also loved seeing some unknown Canadian bands that I will certainly check out. I love the honesty in your chart.
Excellent chart.
So glad I checked out your chart it’s great.
Played Infected lots in the 80’s on cassette tape and sounded great on the Walkman

Interesting chart. I agree Infected is the best The The album. Very underrated in my opinion.I like the affection for local bands that you enjoyed seeing live...something that influences my appreciation of artists works. Cool to see Hoodoo Gurus and The Divinyls.
Really good music and lots i haven't dived into yet.

What awesome taste you have. Mirror Moves. Blondie, New Gold Dream, Pretenders, all the correct Lou Reed albums, Teenage Head, Nash the Slash, Shriekback. It's unbelievable. I love it.
ForegroundNoise 02/23/2018 09:41
Really really cool chart with loads of hidden gems and not obvious choices. Only criticism would be maybe a neglect of the post 80s? But otherwise love this chart's uniqueness
dihansse 12/18/2017 21:02
I very much like your chart and I definitely will have to check out of some of your Canadian picks. By the way I love the Courtneys and The Sadies, also Canadians for this year 2017.

I love this chart - many gems here. We have similar tastes and I hope to listen to some new stuff.
