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 75.7/100, a mean average of 70.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 18.6.

We should probably be friends.

i will hold off on giving you a rating until i listen to more of these, but nouns and ga ga ga ga ga are two of my favourites

Great Chart. Nice mix of new and relatively old classics.

Our tastes couldn't be more different but I respect that the albums and groups you list are considered the best of their genre.
it was the first album i ever bought/owned

I'm conflicted, you def have some really great albums on there, but Blink-182....

some albums are simply over-exposed

like your chart.. but i think Cartoken is right: some of your picks are pretty intriguing )

I like it. Great picks. Don't listen to CT, your albums are worth it.

Strangeways, Here We Come instead of the queen is dead, Come On Pilgrim instead of Doolittle, first impression of earth instead Is This It?, The Head On The Door instead of Disintegration, Transmissions From The Satellite Heart instead of Yoshimi battles the pink robot, Brighten The Corners instead of Slanted & Enchanted, EVOL instead of daydream nation, Keep It Like A Secret instead of Perfect From Now On.......... is this what you really think ? i find this extremely intriguing ...
