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 89.7/100, a mean average of 89.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.1.

I love the main riff that opens this track. It’s a Tony Iommi classic. But it’s not just the intro here. This is a track that stands up against any that has gone previously.
I never thought that Masters Of Reality or Vol. 4 were bad albums, far from it, but they weren’t on a par with the first two albums. From the opening riff of this track, I knew that this albums was going to be something special.
And what an autro! Fades out too soon for me but is one of Sabbs heaviest endings to any song. Loved it back then. Love it now.

Words can do this song no justice, one of Sabbath's crowning achievements. Every single section of this song is amazing, especially that breakdown before the fade out.
