I think all of them are equally amazing!

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 83.7/100, a mean average of 81.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 10.7.

"I know that Kid A isn't the best Radiohead album for most (but it's one of their best) and I know it isn't the greatest album of all time but it's called an opinion." Great chart with a great disclaimer. Just needs a bit of Cure and I'll be even happier.
