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 4% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 89.3/100, a mean average of 90.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.6/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.6.

Great to see so many 21st century indie-faves here, but from looking at your 70s picks which just alternate between four Floyd and four Bowie, I feel that you've given the decades before the 90s only a cursory glance. 33 albums from this decade (which remember isn't even over yet) seems excessive versus the measly three doled out to the 1980s.

Mostly a fine collection of albums. Great number one. I have only recently heard Age of Adz and it changed my mind about Sufjan Stevens. For me it's his best album of the three I've heard. Its very good stuff. Plenty of other good artists like the Floyd, Radiohead, Bowie and Kanye West. But sorry I don't like Death Grips or Wilco. But we can't all like everything the same. You have pretty good taste in music. Above average.

Oh My God I love your picks! We have very similar taste! Age of Adz, The Final Cut, and Low all deserve more recognition! And it's great to see some love for both Amnesiac and Kid A!
