This is number one for so many reasons. First of all, I grew up on this album. I remember hearing this when I was 5 or 6 and even back then when I didn't know shit about music, I knew that I liked this. This is one of the most versatile albums I can think of. Brad Nowell can pull of any genre he puts his mind to: ska, reggae, punk, alternative, rap, fucking everything. It deserves this spot.
Favorite Songs: 5446 That's My Number/Ball and Chain, Don't Push, Right Back, KRS-One, Waiting for My Ruca, Let's Go Get Stoned (Sorry I can't stop lol let's just say EVERY song) [First added to this chart: 09/25/2011]

Modest Mouse is a band that I didn't even know about until Good News came out, and back then I didn't think too much of them. I mean, Float On was a catchy song, but so is everything on the radio. A couple years later, when We Were Dead came out, I saw a little more promise, so I downloaded all of their old shit, and I was just completely blown away. The Lonesome Crowded West is their second album and it is nothing short of a freakin masterpiece. Isaac Brock is a genius. From the eccentrically beautiful opener that is Teeth Like God's Shoeshine all the way through to the folkified Styrofoam Boots, there is not a bad song on this CD. Doin' the Cockroach and Cowboy Dan have got to be two of the greatest songs ever recorded. In my opinion ;]
Favorite Songs: Trucker Atlas, Doin' the Cockroach, Cowboy Dan, Styrofoam Boots/It's All Nice on Ice, Alright, Heart Cooks Brain [First added to this chart: 09/25/2011]

I try to spread out artists on this list. I hate clumping them all together. BUT... I completely refuse to put this album any lower than number three. This is almost -ALMOST- as good as their second CD. Lonesome is just a little more refined and better produced. But still, every song on this album has that beauty in its instruments and lyrics that only Brock can scribe. And the EMOTION in Custom Concern... nobody else can make life sound more depressing and mundane than him and that is what I love about this album.
Favorites: Custom Concern, Head South, Talking Shit About a Pretty Sunset, Make Everyone Happy/Mechanical Birds, Breakthrough [First added to this chart: 09/25/2011]

Robbin' the Hood... What can I say about you? Let me start by saying this is NOT an album for everybody lol. It is Brad Nowell in very obvious deep stages of heroin addiction. A problem that I know about all too well. That might be why I connect with this album more than most. It's doesn't have the great production value of their other two main releases, but something about it has a giant electrical spark of genius creativity. This is the album that gets me thinking what other remarkable things Brad could've written if he hadn't died so young...

Poor, poor Brad. This is the last thing he recorded before that shitty, shitty day in music history. He didn't even get to hear what most consider his magnum opus. It is a great record, way ahead of its time and just a little after Brad's. He had an unmatchable talent for writing hit songs without you know, "selling out." He made it look so easy. Almost every song he's ever written sounds like it could be a single. It makes me so sad that he'll never get to see how many people love the music he's written...
Favorites: Under My Voodoo, Get Ready, Garden Grove, Seed, The Ballad of Johnny Butt, Burritos [First added to this chart: 09/25/2011]

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 84.5/100, a mean average of 83.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 83.6/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 15.1.

That`s a quite good contemporary alternative chart!
Not exactly my music, but respect for adding some good classics and introducing many "unknown" bands!

I was just trying to edit it. I was messing with it for like an hour and I finally got it just how I wanted it. I clicked Save Chart and I looked at it and everything was completely out of order. Nowhere near the order I put it in. And it deleted three albums. I have no clue which lol. I'm pissed, and don't feel like fixing it right now. But just know that this is not my list. It has most of the albums, but not the right order at all.
