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 86.4/100, a mean average of 85.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.7/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 10.4.

Ken in the top 20! Unexpected but very cool
No 1960's album, only 8 from the 70's and 8 REM albums?

Any Radiohead stacked list gets a thumbs up from me.

Really good list so far :D
Good chart. R.E.M.'s "Up" is indeed underrated.

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 :(
