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 86.0/100, a mean average of 85.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.4/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.5.

Fantastic song. That guitar jingle I've been searching in my head for months it was so memorable. It was driving me nuts until I re-listened to An Awesome Wave. I searched through Fleet Foxes entire discography thinking it was from one of their songs. Great string section at the end too.

This last cut makes or breaks the album for listeners. For me, this cements the album's genius mix of variant sounds. Shows off what a really talented, unique band this is. Listen! It's a true story, and amazing. To fully understand the "difficult" lyrics, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerda_Taro
