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 albums can have several thousand ratings)

This album is rated in the top 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 91.9/100, a mean average of 89.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.1.

I do not believe there is a single greater album on this planet, it is so emotionally powerful and the sound is just so amazing and beautiful it never fails to sweep me off my feet.

I can understand how this is unique, but best album ever? No. I couldn’t even finish the album because it got too repetitive and boring. People can think what they want, but this is not in my top 100.

The Greatest Album Ever Recorded? If that is the case, every single song off of this record should be 100/100, and every last second should sweep me off my feet.

Am I seriously to believe that the 2 minutes of robot vocals in "Fitter Happier" is worthy of being 100/100? Am I to believe that the moaning, droning, grating "Climbing Up The Walls" is 100/100 material?

This album is ranked on this website as The Greatest Album Ever, above every other record (just as a reminder, that's against everything put out by The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Joy Division, Metallica, Queen, and The Smiths, just to name a few). Even Radiohead superfans know that a bold claim like this is complete nonsense.

It's okay to like "Karma Police", "Paranoid Android", and "No Surprises". I like them too. But a few good songs does not make for a 5 Star Album, and it certainly does not make for the Greatest Album Ever Recorded.

Overrated and Overhyped; 3 Stars At Most.

Uno dei dischi nella trinità della musica, capace di emozionare sia al primo ascolto sia un ascoltatore veterano. Un esempio di come il cambiamento nella musica sia qualcosa che è necessario nella vita di un'artista o di una band. La perfezione non si spreca...ogni dettaglio è curato al massimo con una resa sonora degna delle registrazioni odierne. Che dire...100/100
