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)

And excellent, hard-rocking opener. A little over the top in places, but never ridiculous. Sets the tone well.
An energetic start to the album. A decent rocker but it's nothing great and it sounds as if the Stones are trying too hard, like they're ticking all the boxes, this being the sleazy curtain raiser. Having said that, it's still a heck of a lot of fun.
