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 10% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 87.8/100, a mean average of 88.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.7/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 8.2.

Vampire Weekend should be in my list too now that I think of it. Also, nice to see St. Vincent in your top 20. Only negative thing I can say about your list is that your hiphop picks are a bit safe, but I’m already relieved to see a chart that’s not 100% prog rock.

Really love this chart and the rating layout (if for some somewhat surprising choices like Everything Now and Recovery)
