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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.0/100, a mean average of 66.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 19.9.

Perhaps the best song on this highly regrettable album. Interesting are the blues riff, just like the good guitar solos, although Iommi did much better earlier in the career of sabbath. Just as is the case with many of the songs on this album: lack of character, fantasy, memorable melodies, interesting arrangements, etc. Again: how deplorablely my favorite group has faded into oblivion. Such a shame that the experimental brutality and energy of the first 6 albums are completely absent.
