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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 79.7/100, a mean average of 78.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.8.

Some amazing B-sides from the OK Computer singles were placed on this EP. My personal favorite is Palo Alto, which was a B-side for the No Surprises single.

Great EP, this and My Iron Lung are my two favourite EPs. Had to put them in my top 100 albums really. Love all the songs, but in particular Palo Alto, Pearly and Polyethylene, Pts. 1 & 2.

Best EP ever. Polyethylene, Pearly, and Palo Alto are some of Radiohead's best songs. Thom's voice really shines in this album, and Johnny absolutely shreds. Shouldn't be a surprise that the greatest album of all time also has the greatest B-Sides.
