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 85.4/100, a mean average of 85.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.2/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.7.

Great chart! I see a ton of favorites on this! :D
Leisure from Blur was a bit of a surprise, personally, I thought that was one of their weaker albums, but I remember liking a lot when I was younger so I'm happy to see it getting some love. :)

Very eclectic chart. What's not to like? Look forward to seeing your top 100 in time.

Dark Side as number 1, Maiden, Dead Can Dance, King Crimson, Miles Davis (here I thought it couldn't get any better), Opeth, Coltrane, Joy Division, Jarre... I'm glad you don't have 100 entries cause there isn't a rating better than 100

Took a few points off for being a bit short. But it's still a solid chart; I can't wait to see your other 50 choices
