Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by 
Antonio-Pedro 
"God gave us music so that we, first and foremost, will be guided upward by it. All qualities are united in music: it can lift us up, it can be capricious, it can cheer us up and delight us, nay, with its soft, melancholy tunes, it can even break the resistance of the toughest character. Its main purpose, however, is to lead our thoughts upward, so that it elevates us, even deeply moves us. ... Music also provides pleasant entertainment and saves everyone who is interested in it from boredom. All humans who despise it should be considered mindless, animal-like creatures. Ever be this most glorious gift of God my companion on my life's journey, and I can consider myself fortunate to have come to love it. Let us sing out in eternal praise to God who is offering us this beautiful enjoyment.
- Nietzsche in 1858
This chart needs some work to blossom away, still need to end some notes from my diary, men at work in progress.
Love you all, Antonio Momonio <3

Tired of the goddamn vacation, inside a supermarket cart when you are very high, and with your friends taking the wildest ride at Walmart to see the mess you guys can do.
Watching my life, passing in front of my eyes, I Found DeMarco in a very special and nostalgia-filled moment in my life, with 15 years, salad days first popped into my headphones in the middle of the summer school break, and was almost the rythm of that season (hell it probably is still today my most listened artist on last.fm). The sun cracking the asphalt from the suburbs and just loosing afternoons in pool sessions with salad days pumping on the sound. And one of the reasons I got so attached to him was mostly his persona which at the time seemed the role model of musician to me, a guy who was really captivating, doing whatever he liked with his guitar, and smoking here and there his vintage cigarettes from the 70s. At first glance, salad days didn't catch me as expected, of course I loved the guitar sound that it blew, but I found it to be dissonant and quite boring, but as the summer progressed and I found that old love of mine wasn't loving me as much as I thought her would be, I began to spin this album more often than my coscience would catch. It is something so colorful and joyful, I normally express a lot of dramatic feelings towards many of my records on this chart, because I feel that the melancholy and the abyss i'm stuck in the middle of the disitegration the music has on me brings me to a certain state of transcendence and ethereal fulfilling. Salad days managed to sneak between these albums and find a place to be venerated on the spotlight of my soul, it's so fun and puts you to shake all your muscles or at least your feet to the vibration of these jangly guitars.
a Jizz jazz morning shines in my window every time I would bring this on my casual saturday mornings, it feels so lazy and homestuck it could tear apart all my stress of 2nd grade studies. I remember going to his show in 2015, the same year that I began to listen to his music. Now for the north of Brazil it's quite rare to have such a "big" talented musician as mac performing, so I couldn't loose this opportunity, and although he didn't play my favorite song (My kind of woman) Mac put out a lovely show that could cozy all my heart and melt it into an euphoric bubble of joy, he seemed kinda tired but still smiling with that big old gap on his teeth which could be seen from miles and miles. And I still managed to talk to him and He touched my hand! haaaaaaaa, and I did't clean that hand for a week or more, it was still damn worth it. It smells like salad and boredom, but a compreensive and fortunate laziness, You're awesome mac. [First added to this chart: 06/25/2015]

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 is rated in the top 1% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 92.9/100, a mean average of 93.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 93.3/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.8.

Very nice. I like the added info under each choice as well. Explanations and information referring to the choice and the reason picked helps the reader a lot. I've done a few, buy not all. Very sad that that the number one album, "Eureka," can't be found in most places, or anywhere else to purchase or listen, except on youtube.
