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 89.1/100, a mean average of 87.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.4/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 18.7.

Great chart my dude! Your Plastic Beach quote gave me instant chills, so good to finally see someone who gets it. For that you must hear my strange-beauty recommendation: Pony by Spratleys Japs. I swear it's lauded in far-between circles, there's more life in it than almost everything. Its soul wouldn't be if it were all-beautiful, ugliness can be beauty, here more than most. Give it time if you will as its full form shows itself.

Love the chart, lots of great stuff, I'm a big fan of the Good, the Bad & the Queen in particular, so we share that uncommon set of Damon.

7 albums in common, and your other selections are hard to argue with. It's nice to see Slowdive sneak onto here

Nice selection of great albums. Might add New Order Substance to my top 100 despite it being a compilation album.

Hmm... not quite edgy enough. Arcade Fire, Stone Roses, and Radiohead all sound pretty anemic to me. No offense; perhaps you're just more chill than I am. Yeah, I think you must be pretty chill to be a Gorillaz fan.
