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 73.7/100, a mean average of 66.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.9/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 18.9.

This is a very (self consciously?) hip chart. Although I respect and like most of these artists, I question a few of your specific album choices. On the other hand, nice to see Underwater Moonlight, My Generation, Sound Affects, The Modern Lovers,others. The good definitely outweighs the so-so.
A great selection of albums across many decades with balance - certainlyt all I know are worth listening to and I suspect strongly the remainer are too. Thx for introducing them.
some good albums but im a bit unsure about the ramones album youv chosen, its probably my least favourite of them and the offspring album who i am not a big fan of
very original picks. i haven't heard enough of these albums to rate your chart but i really like those i've listened to.

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 :(
