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)

My very first experience of Nirvana. I was 17 and it was like nothing I’d ever heard before.
Kurdt's found a little bit more room on the back of his fag packet for these lyrics. Written by K about himself. Wonder what he did in the rest of his toilet break. Trouble is once you have listened to this you have introduced a worm into your head that cannot be released. Repetition, repetition, repetition.
This is out of 'my' reach
Borderline biblical
This and School are the two best Bleacg songs, they're grunge classics.
Great Heavy metal drums and incredible song
The song that probably spawned Breed. Spawned Breed. Get it?
