Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by 
ShadowColossi 
Ok so I rate albums as follows:
I basically just write down all the songs, rank them from 1-5*, and then add up all the *s, / the max number of stars. For example:
Pink Floyd Animals
Pigs on the Wing pt. 1 - *****
Dogs- *****
Pigs- *****
Sheep- *****
Pigs on the Wing pt. 2- *****
25/25=10.0
This chart is a constant work in process- it's very possible it may change multiple times a day. I'm always listening to new music and my opinions on certain albums are also due to change over time- So I apologize if you liked my chart a way it was before, but they're all there anyways. I just like to keep it up to date for my tastes at the moment.
I judge music by complexity and creativity in songwriting, as well as uniqueness. So when something strikes me as well written, complex music with a unique sound, it's bound to one of my favorites. I also believe emotion is a huge thing for music, some songs portray it so well it can make you feel the same way. Anyways, enjoy my chart! Recommendations are ALWAYS welcome :)
Also, I make music and would love if you checked it out!

A calming, electronic atmosphere given to you by a voice that sometimes couldn't care less, and sometimes, couldn't care more. The sampling in this album is just flawless, each sound fits the songs so well. There is a moment in "Pick Up the Phone" Where there is one drum beat and then just nothing but this noise- it's one of my favorite points in the album. The noise just takes the song to a different level entirely for some strange reason. Other highlights include when the guitars kick in on "One With the Freaks", the soft-spoken beauty of "Consequence", and the vicious back-to-back "Solitaire", and "This Room", which are my favorite tracks on the record.
9.6 / 10
Favorite Track: "This Room"
"Leave me paralyzed, love
Leave me hypnotized, love" [First added to this chart: 01/16/2016]

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 1% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 92.7/100, a mean average of 92.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 93.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 13.5.

@dexme: I don’t understand your comment at all: he only rated a couple of hundreds of albums, he’s chosen some fairly non standard albums albums for this top chart and he wouldn’t go into the trouble to write these long personal comments on his top albums if he was only after the points: for me this chart and the comment that go with it is a winner.
Your chart sucks. It only has popular albums. Stop ratings albums just because you want points. How dare you.

Nice chart!

Phenomenal chart my friend. Looks similar to mind, in terms of description. :)))

Great chart, I can see mine looking a bit like this in a year's time. By the way, the track on Blonde on Blonde is "Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again", not "the Texas Blues".
Interesting chart
