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 3% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 89.5/100, a mean average of 89.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 8.6.

This chart has some picks that remind me of mine a few years ago. Mogwai, Godspeed You! Black Emperor!, Boards of Canada, all good picks
ForegroundNoise 07/30/2018 13:41
Absolutely ADORE so many of these great picks, many of which appear on my own chart. That said, I feel like the focus on so many 90s & 00s indie classics the pre-90s has been short changed a little - if you're after older records that don't feel so dated you may like a few of these krautrock beauts:
Tangerine Dream - Zeit
Can - Ege Bamyasi
Faust - Faust IV
Amon Düül II - Yeti

Very cool chart. You obviously like innovative music. Many classic albums. Good work.
wooolf 10/21/2017 14:20
Great chart!
A lot of less known stuff I really like.
I'll be coming back here for discoveries!
(Didn't like your nr 1 ('Hospice' at the time of writing) on first listen, but maybe it will be a grower for me..)
Nice chart, especially good for those who like a lot of more modern music.
25 albums in common, 10 of which are outside of the BEA top 100.
great chart !!!!
Original chart. Congratulations.
Arthurknight 11/09/2015 21:04
really like this chart of the day, seamless integration of unique and expected

A lot of indie and rap. Not bad, but I don't know many of these albums and some I don't like

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
