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 83.8/100, a mean average of 82.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.3/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 13.6.

So similar to my list and record collection that it's almost creepy. I will check out the bands on this list I'm not yet familiar with.
Impeccable taste. I love this chart, so similar to my own. And we both agree about what the greatest album ever is!
Great list
Crazy Rhythms by the Feelies? Los Angeles by X?, Doc at Radar Station by Captain Beefheart?, Minor Threat?,Swordfishtrombones by Tom Waits?, Double Nickels on the Dime by the Minutemen, Reign in Blood by Slayer?, Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys? Bad Brains?
I've gotta check out Comsat Angels...they sound right up my alley. Love your chart!
You can't go wrong with Unknown Pleasures!
No concuerdo demasiado, pero me gusta que expliques cada una de tus elecciones. Seguiré tu ejemplo.
Extraordinary taste!
I have to agree with cartoken, no Pixies or Sonic Youth in an 80s chart is a joke. Love the Chameleons though ! Used to have "Strange Times" on my chart a while back.
nice ! but some of the greatest band of the 80s are missing : Pixies and Sonic Youth.

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 :(
