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 85.8/100, a mean average of 85.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.2.

I REALLY like this one. It makes me think of a man travelling through the desert on camelback

Great drum track from Lars and an awesome Kirk solo.
The guitars and sound effects are very good, and the lead singer has a good voice. The lyrics are a little weird, though.

I really enjoy Hetfield's vocals here and the main guitar riff has a really interesting Eastern sound.
