You know those houses in horror movies, when you know that something creepy is bound to happen.. And then it does happen? This album is the sonic representation of those houses, but at the beginnings of the movies.

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 2% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 91.2/100, a mean average of 96.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 96.5/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 4.5.

Great Idea and great choices.
Some albums that would look good on this chart :
But Really No Kid A ? It's Dark,Cold and Lost.
and what about In The Court Of The Crimson King? I don't know why but it feels so well with the album together !
And surely Ágætis Byrjun needs to be on this cool chart!
and what about Isn't Anything ?
Nice chart

Cool idea. But I would also suggest Spiderland, Electric Ladyland/Axis:Bold as Love, The Meadowlands and Odessey and Oracle

I think you should add ZZ Tops Recycler.

I am only familiar with half of these albums, but I really like the idea of your chart..of course that is the intention of the art departments at the record labels, to create an album cover that describes what is inside.
