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 91.3/100, a mean average of 88.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 92.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 19.2.

Really great and varied chart plus I like the detail you've added of favourite moment, really gives a strong impression of how you feel about a record. However, I do think this chart is still absurdly weighted to the modern era, and that's what stopping me from giving it 100. Including more Oneohtrix Point Never albums than any of the 60s, 70s or 80s makes me think you're missing out on some older gems! I'm sure like more the 'rock canon' does nothing but bore you so here's a few of my underground faves that might make nice additions to your chart:
The United States of America - The United States of America (1968)
Brigitte Fontaine - Comme á la Radio (1969)
Comus - First Utterance (1971)
Tangerine Dream - Zeit (1972)
Steve Reich - Music For 18 Musicians (1978)
Love so many Grips albums! And the top 10 is pretty unexpected and cool. It's a chart with many new albums to discover, definitely the kind I like stumbling upon. Not exactly the genres I usually listen to, even better!
On a more selfish note, I'd definitely recommend you some metal stuff, I've seen you rate Dystopia, The Book Of Souls and some others pretty low and I think you're just missing the context. Try the Sabbath's self titled, Maiden's The Number of the Beast or Metallica's Master of Puppets, I've always found those three to be a good introduction to a genre. As for more modern albums, Gojira and Mastodon have been firing on all cylinders lately.
Cheers :)
Dude, this is good. It is really good. You have some very nice obscure picks on this list.
Dude... have you heard of RYM? Jokes aside great list and taste, I agree wholeheartedly with the Loud City Song pick. In seeing the rest of your choices and then lovesliescrushing: if you haven't heard of them already I'd highly recommend Astrobrite. I am not Shinzo Abe!
Oh my god, El Oso! Love that record, never thought I'd see it in another chart. And Með Suð! And Images of Sigrid?!
Great list, will have to check out the stuff I don't recognize. Any chance you could suggest something for me?
