Top 50 Greatest Music Albums
by AMBNTnoises

constantly changing since i only get 50 entries (right now at least).
I don't hold this to be the absolute greatest's albums ever, I don't have enough to do that. Rather, my personal favorite albums of all time. I mostly listen to new music, although I am trying to expand to older music now.

I repeat artists if I like them a lot. it is what it is.

I always find myself going back to this album. For Today may not be the best metal band ever, but dadgum this is a good album. [First added to this chart: 05/01/2017]

I always find myself torn between picking this album and nothing is wrong as my favorite. It is definitely between the two though [First added to this chart: 05/01/2017]

This is one of those albums where you can't really describe to someone what kind of music it is. Every section of each song is like a different guitar, I could spend countless hours just admiring and playing Without getting bored. I really cannot get enough of this album.

I am a major DOOM fan, and this is probably my favorite album of his.

I am extremely confused. Kanye gets all this credit and talk for changing the so called "rap game". Where is DOOM's recognition for still being one of the best MC's ever? I call bullshit.

Manchester Orchestra is incredible. They have such a unique sound that no other band can quite match it and this album is my favorite of all their albums to date. I cant put my finger on exactly why they are so good but it is. [First added to this chart: 02/26/2015]

"My moms died from secondhand smoke; so I wish yo' ass would die from them secondhand rhymes you wrote // Or shall I call them second rhymes - written seconds 'fore you enter the booth // Words thrown together with very little truth // And a select few can do it (true) you ain't part of them scriptures" (I know its common that raps that) [First added to this chart: 01/09/2017]

I absolutely love this album, start to finish. There is a lot of John Mayer that I don't like, but I genuinely believe this will go down as one of the best albums of our current time. [First added to this chart: 01/09/2017]

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 88.8/100, a mean average of 91.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.2/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 5.9.

I'm not familiar with most of the stuff you have on this chart but it's cool how personal it is. And what I do know - Dawes, Whitney, Floyd, and My Morning Jacket among others - is all awesome.

Interesting chart. Original. Glad you like Pink Floyd. I haven't heard of half of these albums so I've got some checking out to do. Good work.

Good start, varied, looks good. I'm intrigued to see where this goes. Good call on Dawes, I've always felt they're an underrated band, and Lamb Of God is some solid stuff. There's a lot of metal people here so they'll be happy to toss some recs your way.

Looks good!
