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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.7/100, a mean average of 76.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.5.

Great EP. "About Today," and "Wasp Nest" are both underrated gems.
Nice EP! About Today is such a beauty...
About Today is in my top 5 of my fav The National songs. Surprised that not so many National geeks like me haven't given it a push. Beautiful song.

Agreed. I was surprised when this wasn't on any charts. All The Wine, Cherry Tree & About Today are probably some of the National's best songs. I know it's only an EP, but it deserves to be on our charts.
This album is short yet I absolutely love it. It puts me in a really cool vibe.
