"It's easy to see why Viet Cong are so suited to a genre such as post-punk considering it came with the promise of heralding a 'limitless future' - for music at the very least. Songs often stop, take unexpected de-tours, and to paraphrase the Young Marble Giants constantly change. Like Interpol with 'Turn on the Bright Lights' Viet Cong is a re-boot of a classic sound with frequent and obvious spot-the-influence moments (Gang of Four, This Heat, Wire etc etc) with some of the quirks and eccentricities that half the band shared in their previous incarnation as Women still clearly on show.
It is very much an albums album, with it's only one real concession to pop-music being the single 'Continental Shelf', all the while conjuring an oppressive Orwellian atmosphere where the buildings are healthy...even if the people aren't, it is rarely predictable even if it is a jarring, bumpy ride but it is also excellent.

"Studio reworkings of live Chris & Cosey tracks that are no less engaging - or thrilling for that matter. Putting the sensual into the sexual; hedonistic, paganistic, pugilistic, and clearly enjoying itself, it is (ahem) hot on the heels of love." February 2015 [First added to this chart: 03/02/2015]

"Here they are again, sounding better than everyone else all over again. A marked improvement on Think Tank and most definitely rubbing shoulders with some of their best records. Reflective of the city it was recorded in - Hong Kong, there's a spacey, futuristic glow to each song whilst all the while a sense of melancholy loneliness and dislocation pervades amongst the hubbub. The Magic Whip finds Blur very much Lost. In. The. City. It is without a shadow of a doubt a brilliant album and an excellent return to form, sounding for all the world like the same band who released She's So High and even still The Great Escape, it will leave very few Blur fans disappointed - even if inevitably, you're left wanting more. Standout tracks include: Thought I Was A Spaceman; My Terracotta Heart; There Are Too Many Of Us and Mirrorball. 10 out of 10." April 2015 [First added to this chart: 04/10/2015]

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 86.2/100, a mean average of 86.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.2/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 8.5.

OK, so why have I included so many Perfume Genius lps? Well, I think this guy is great and he’s been consistently excellent with each release. Definitely one of the best artists of the 10’s. Give him a chance you might be pleasantly surprised.

I wasn't personally a big fan of your overall chart, and though maybe I don't agree with many of the picks (four PG albums and a total absence of hip hop are my main gripes) the inclusion of the mini reviews are a joy to read. Great stuff!!
