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)

I've listened to this album 7-8 times already, but it isn't until now how great I realize this opener is. (Edited)
Great start, excellent track.
Complaining about f-bombs, really? He says 'fuck' at most twice in the whole song....Don't be so tight
Potentially the best opening track in the last 20 years. (Edited)
This is what an album opener should be. Catchy, inviting and honest. (Edited)
