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 85.5/100, a mean average of 84.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.1.

This riff has its own gravitational force.

First heard this song when I was 13 or 14 and it absolutely changed my life.

Heavy as hell! A ton of wah effects though.
