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 83.5/100, a mean average of 81.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.4/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 13.0.

Muy buena lista. Saludos compatriota!
Love the list. Great overall mix. Nice to see the likes of Opeth, Brad, Screaming Trees, Type O Negative, & Monster Magnet in there
I added this list 10 years ago. A lot has changed since then. Will look on how to edit the list
This is an absolute impressing list. Thank you!
Great list. True to your favorite genres, light on the classics, full of great records.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
