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 3% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 82.5/100, a mean average of 81.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 15.2.

Why does THIS song have the lowest average rating on the album??? This is one of the best, love the noisy guitars!

Wtf, just because it's the Velvet Underground and it's experimental doesn't make it good. It's explicitly shitty guitar over a fast drum beat. Your annoying neighborhood kids could get together and play this, but they didn't. It was the Velvet Underground who did it, and so it must be hailed as genius 100/100. Don't get me wrong, some other noisy tracks on this album are pretty good and enjoyable, but this is just unlistenable.
This album gets better and better as it goes on, this is the second best song on the album after Sister Ray imo.
It might be just the appetizer before the main course ("Sister Ray"), but what an appetizer!

I've always enjoyed this one, full of destroying sound and vocals
If this didn't inspire Noise Rock in someway, I have no idea what did. A lot of feedback, but it sounds so good.
