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 81.6/100, a mean average of 80.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.3/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 13.9.

Virkelig god liste, brormand. Dog har vi ikke så meget tilfælles, men det gør ingen skade på mit positive indtryk på den. Også, klogt med bare en sætning =)

That's my taste!

Your comments are short but great :D
Just not enough variation. 20% of the chart is taken up by two acts.
Lots of Time and effort on your list I'll give you extra points for that alone. Summed up your list at the beginning naming your fave bands
Great work love all your bands u like

Disregard my last comment. Being as artist-biased as this does make a difference.
Monotonous, boring, tough to read. Listen to some more artists.

Nice list although I would like to see more variety in artists. Luckily those artists are really good ones.
Thanks for visiting my chart! Props to you too, especially the top 10!

the comments on each album are awesome. I enjoy the charts, people actually put some effort in them.
And what can I say about The Beatles, they were the greatest. I think my chart is exactly the opposite to yours. I have a 30% in 60's, 70' and 80's music, and 70% on the next decades. Because well... i am a 90's kid.
I contiously trying to discover the 60's and 70's. So probably you could find some intresting stuff.
Radiohead, maybe you wont like it, but at least "The Bends", can definitely fit in your taste of music.
Or just listen to The National, they are brilliant non-electronic at all, just pure greatness!
I'll use this chart as a reference for my 60's, 70's and 80's albums

Really artist and decade heavy, but that's never a bad thing.
