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 75.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.2.

From when they were still guitar driven. First 3 tracks are absolute crackers, the rest.....meh.
I enjoyed this album, it's like a shortened version of The Bends and some bits of Pablo Honey.
This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.
Quality rock EP, love the riffs through out and ends with a great acoustic creep.
Don't feel like a big hit.
love it. i bought it for 3 bucks
Prime Radiohead quality.
Short n sweet.
I know this is only a collection of obscure tracks, of minor relevance even for many fans of the group. But as it happened this is my favourite release by Radiohead (I'm obviously not a die-hard fan): especially the mid-album tracks perfectly match understatement and remoteness: two qualities of high value not to be so easily found on regular albums (which I find mostly great anyway in their own right).
