What Can I say about this album, it´s one of the bests i´ve ever heard, just an impresionant combination of indie folk and psychedelic rock have ever exist, From the King of Carrot Flowers, to the Two Headed Boy, the most interesting album ever made, the lyrics are impresionant, a mix of stranged souls that the unique reason to be alive is to bring the people that s dead to an aeroplane, the aeroplane over the sea, dark times with some politic lyrics, I´m 100% sure this is the best album of the 90s.

The first time I listened to this album, was after downloading the epic Paranoid Android, and then, it's masterpiece, Climbing Up the Walls. To listen to this was like, when you like pop and suddenly you start listening Pixies, AMAZING! When it started, I couldn't predict anything in the first song, they were different to everything, the music was....uuuuunique. When it finished, "I Lost Myself", I was thinking at my mind, "Damn, this thing is going to be hard to beat"

Best song: Climbing Up the Walls
Worst song: You know that is easily predictable, Fitter Happier is more like an interlude before being a song [First added to this chart: 07/19/2014]

Coming from the winding influence of Velvet Underground and the strangely noise guitar taken from Sonic Youth, this electronic gothic bands appear to make this incredible album, pure strongly, incredible, scary, but awesome

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 5% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 88.7/100, a mean average of 88.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 8.4.

I like reading your reviews in broken english more than regular english because it makes me think more about what you really mean as opposed to what you're just saying. I didn't know I liked that until now

Brilliant. I found this chart from your comment on sigur ros. Whoever thinks viorar vel til loftarasa is fantastic has a great music taste. We have a lot of music in common!

Solid taste, relatively classic-oriented. I've seen some of your comments on this site. You seem like a very passionate fellow, which is great of course. However, your English could be improved a bit, to say the least!
