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 89.9/100, a mean average of 90.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.4/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.3.

Excellent chart! We share a love of Nirvana's Nevermind, which doesn't exactly make either of us that unique--except to say it's an album that I connected to on a very personal level as soon as it came out, and that still packs a punch whenever I hear it. Looking forward to checking out some of the selections on your list that are less familiar to me!

Really awesome chart top to bottom. The stuff I've listened to is great, the stuff I haven't seems unique.

This is a list of great taste! And absolutely surprising in every way. In my opinion this is one of the most exciting chart. Love to see Twilight Sad, Songs:Ohia, Suicide or The La's in such a prominent environment. Thank you mate
