Rating metrics: Help 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 82.1/100, a mean average of 80.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.4.

No fue de mi agrado. Muchas de las mejores canciones, como Pyramid Song y Life in a Glasshouse no me convencieron y se me quedaron muy cortas para las expectativas que les tenía. Aun no quiero descartar la posibilidad de escucharlo de nuevo, porque algo así me ocurrió las primeras veces que escuché Kid A. Mi favorita ha sido You and Whose Army? Hay muchos experimentos que salen mal, como Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors y Hunting Bears. Hay otras que me parecieron normales pero que siento que me van a gustar con más escuchadas, Knives Out es un ejemplo de eso. En fin, esas son mis apreciaciones.

Perhaps a bit sloppier than other albums by Radiohead. But Pyramid Song makes it a 95/100

Moments where I start to feel it.

They’re few and far between.

I really love some of the tracks on here - Pyramid Song; You And Whose Army; I Might Be Wrong; Life In A Glass House - but it's their first album for me that as a whole doesn't elevate into magic status
