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 92.2/100, a mean average of 91.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 92.4/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.8.

The sound of depression set to a broken dance beat. Amazing work.

So happy yet so dark and depressing! Perfect song
IMO this is the quintessential "post-punk" song.
Yeah great track
This song changed my life
One of the best base lines recorded.

You could argue that the entire mood, soundscape and feeling of the album is set out within those opening few seconds. And to even be suggesting such a thing is a testament to how good this song is.
It's a melancholy, fast paced masterpiece.
makes me feel better in a strange way
