I have very diverse music taste, don't lynch me if I like/dislike something you have a different opinion about pls. This is all just my opinion and the albums I like the most, not the albums I think are the absolute best, so no OK Computer.

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 85.7/100, a mean average of 85.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.6/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.7.

Great variety! I love that you don’t just go for the obvious choices and let your taste speak for itself

Thoughtful chart - loving your love for Australian albums in your top 100. We only have 2 albums in common - Jagged Little Pill & Gracelands - but isn't that the absolute joy of individual taste.

way too much Ye............... Some of the other pop choices seem a bit out of place. I mean, I'll enjoy them from time to time, but eh.

The descriptions are a little too undetailed and messy for me, but it's fine. Yeezy's the man!

I got excited to see Blondie's first album instead of the usual Parallel Lines that you always see around here. That one and Plastic Letters are the best. I guess I gotta find out who Sick puppies are, huh? Ha ha
