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 6% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 88.6/100, a mean average of 90.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 8.6.

Very interesting chart. Always like a chart that ventures outside the usual selections. Great job
Even without any notes, and with very little in common with my own chart, I find this an extremely interesting chart. A lot of Asian and Latin music which is very rarely seen here, and a lot of music form the 1980s similarly unusual, makes this interesting to look at even with absolutely no context to it.
Some recommendations that I can see you liking, MonetLikeYoghurt:
— ‘Soundtracks’, ‘Tago Mago’, ‘Ege Bamyası’, ‘Future Days’, ‘Soon Over Babaluma’ by Can
— ‘Phallus Dei’, ‘Yeti’, ‘Tanze der Lemminge’ by Amon Düül II
— ‘A Return to the Inner Experience’, ‘This Timeless Turning’, ‘Moonbathing on Sleeping Leaves’ by Sky Cries Mary
— ‘Dummy’, ‘PNYC’ by Portishead
— ‘Silver Apples of the Moon’, ‘Sounds of the Satellites’, ‘Good Looking Blues’ by Laika

Based Chart

Interesting to say the least.
