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 78.6/100, a mean average of 74.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.5/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 17.2.

One of the better top 10s I've seen!
I like Hazards of Love and Fleet Foxes in your top 40. They didn't make mine but are very close. Some other nice choices as well!
I really like the choices for your top 10!
A little too much beatles and pink floyd for my taste. But i love that you have got the decemberists and neutral milk hotel in there!
Good chart, but would be much better with a little diversity.

5 Beatles & 5 Floyd albums out of 40. Somewhat limiting!
Very Solid list, you included Wish you Were Here above Dark side of the Moon and Nevermind & London Calling made the top 10 which i consider excellent choices. I dont like Green Day on the top ten, the music overall in American Idiot is one of the best pieces that have been out in years but I HATE ARMSTRONG'S VOICE!!.

Very Strong selection.
Great list; I'll have to check out the few on here I'm not real familiar with.

Strange pick with Green Day, but the rest of the chart is good.
I think you should have put the beatles at the top of your list!
