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 tracks can have several thousand ratings)
This track is rated in the top 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 83.4/100, a mean average of 82.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 83.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.3.

Blow Out is one of the most underrated songs in Radiohead’s early catalogue!
Spectacular closing track. It's one of their best. The guitar is amazing. From 2:30 onwards when the song just goes supernova - absolutely love it
...until the end.
Sounds like a cross between In Rainbows / latter half of KoL.
The Radiohead song of the album.

probably the only song that ventures into territory this deep for Pablo Honey
Underrated Radiohead song
