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 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 91.0/100, a mean average of 90.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 9.7.

I'm not really a fan of this but I can understand its appeal. Classy musicianship.
The highlight of the album. One of the proggiest tracks on the album. An indication of what is to come, on the album AND on the next album.
I especially like the verses that sound like they were sung in the distance. Songwriting is still getting better, but imho the song is not as good as the less epic but more interesting "Cross Eyed Mary".
Great start for a great album

What a brilliantly effective opening track. It grabs your attention from the get-go. A rock classic.
