Probably the most defining album of this decade, both the mainstream and us BEA music geeks could agree about that

Good Kid, M.A.A.D City - I guess it's better song for song, but it's just not as cinematic and ingenious as TPAB. I mean who the hell has a poem and a Tupac interview on an album?

Kvadrat (Square) is the swan song from one of the best Croatian bands in recent memory. Noise pop/indie and punk have never been as fun in this part of the world.

live @klub - could land here at any given moment, it's an insanely energetic live

I'd love to listen to this while in my bermudas on the beach in the middle of summer during a storm, with strong wind and on comfortable 20 degrees Celsius. I think it's not much to ask

Sunbather - a genre bending masterpiece, and maybe should be here instead of New Bermuda
Ordinary Corrupt Human Love - closest to my heart, and just as good as the other two, don't let anyone tell you otherwise

Over 2 and half hours of incredibly diverse output. First disc is classic Swallow The Sun goth doom sound. The second disc is (neo)folk to die for. Third one is incredibly heavy and dark funeral doom. A behemoth of an album.

When A Shadow Is Forced Into The Light - much less heavy, but the songwriting is just as excellent

Alpha and omega of modern black metal

With Hearts Toward None - probably the best in terms of songwriting, but I don't like the mixing and guitar sound as much
Age of Excuse - my least favourite of the three, and it's still some of the best music of 2019

The catchiest and the most beautiful pop songs of this decade.

Music For People In Trouble - great folky stuff, but just short of a "masterpiece" level that Ten Love Songs comfortably reaches

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 89.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.9/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.9.

What's not to love about this chart ~ with only one album in common, this chart takes me so deep outside my comfort zone. While my musical journey into the uncharted waters of this chart hasn't changed my preferences, I have enjoyed the detour. This is the type of chart that makes me appreciate the diversity of the BEA membership. Really cool to see 5 albums from Australia!

Hey corenfro, thanks a lot! The Kozelek (and Burzum and Kanye etc.) discussion is a nuanced one, but my stance is that separating art from the artist is completely valid. Though it gets tricky with Kozelek since his lyrics are so personal. Then again, I'm always going to warn people about his behaviour and advise against streaming his music and/or buying merch. The way I see it, there's no reason you shouldn't enjoy a nice pirated copy of Benji if you're aware of the context. I've got no problem with people boycotting his music completely, either.

Seen your chart and read your comments for years. You really know your music. I imagine you must be conflicted putting Benji as your #1 given your comments. I really like the creativity and balance of your selections.
