More than just trippy, the songs on Lonerism are actually fantastic.

Nas ain't afraid to tell it how it is. On illmatic, he takes 35 minutes to show you just why he is the best of the best. And wow, is he right.

Dark. Sensual. Gripping. Violet. Powerful. Nothing like it in the world.

Classic. The first (in my opinion) album that is far better as a whole than any of its one songs. Trippy as balls but in the best way possible.

Weird, wacky, jarringly wonderful. A cornucopia of electronica. All electronic musicians, in my opinion, should aspire to such a wonderful artistic statement as Cosmogramma.

An eerie look into the world of isolation and alienation. The songs are phenomenal though, the perfect balance between MM's indie side and mainstream side.

Kendrick tells some of the best stories I've ever heard, and they never get old.

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 13% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 87.5/100, a mean average of 87.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.3/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.5.

Great chart! Have you listened to Spiritualized's Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space? Or maybe Good Morning Spider by Sparklehorse? Something tells me you'd really enjoy both of them.

Nice start. I bet you'll have loads to contribute... However, I can't see Tame Impala in the Top 10. It's decent, but not that great.

Needs more MF Doom, and less Kayne. Have you listened to Madvillainy? Im gonna assume you havent since its not on the list. Other than not bad.

The top ten is terrible in my opinion, but, aside from that, it's an intresting chart.
