Happiness, Sadness, Isolation, Death , this album has everything.
For me this is the best Thom Yorke vocal achievement, you can feel the emotions the song is trying to give you till the first second.
Every Song here is so good but the most important thing is how this songs interacted with each other to form the album atmosphere until the last second of Videotape.
Incredible how 10 years after the band "Masterpiece" Radiohead comes out with this another "Masterpiece".
Fav Tracks: Weird Fishes/Arpeggi, Nude, Reckoner [First added to this chart: 09/21/2020]

One of the most Beautiful Albums Ever
What a musical experience Bjork gave us with this project, i can understand why most people agree with "Homogenic" being her best ever album and the experimental music she creates on that one, but for me "Vespertine" is her most perfect Record, she mix Art Pop, Ambient and Electronica with such human sensitiveness that freaks me out
With every listen you will always hear something new about every song, wonderful wonderful record
Fav Songs: Pagan Poetry, Hidden Place, Unison

The Album every Teenager should listen
Julian Casablancas and company emerged with the closes thing to Kurt Cobain for my generation and saved Rock as the start of the century
5 New York boys in their early 20´s creating electrifying songs with lyrics any person in that age of life can identify with
This Album created a new wave of Bands for the new millennium just ask Alex Turner or Brandon Flowers
I really can listen to this album everyday of my life and get the same power energy as always
Post-Punk Revival / Garage Rock Revival / Indie Rock
Is This It / Someday / Hard To Explain [First added to this chart: 09/21/2020]

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 5% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 88.8/100, a mean average of 87.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.6/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 15.9.

Wow some asshole actually gave you 30....
I like a lot of your choices, but there are some that I will just never understand the appeal... (Kanye West or Coldplay for example)
I do like that you have some lesser known selections. Im going to have to do some homework.

Buenas!
Gracias por pasarte a revisar mi top 100.
Viendo tus charts veo que estamos en los mismos géneros con distintos artistas. Eso está interesante: le prestaré atención algunos de tus albumes top que conozco por canciones particulares, pero nunca les he dado el llegue de jalón.
