Rating metrics: Help 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 87.1/100, a mean average of 86.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.1.

I love that one of the videos suggested is an Arthur meme

The song overall has grown on me quite a bit so I'm raising my rating

DAK, it's supposed to seem wild random, it's about a drug trip gone bad

I don't really see the appeal of this song. I get the impression that they just made the song up as they went along. It doesn't feel planned out or thought out, it just feels like "riff 1, riff 2, riff 3". However, the bridge is one of my favorite moments of the album, it really brings up the score of this track for me

Almost feels like the Ticks & Leeches of this record. Other than the fact that Ticks prided itself on being heavy as fuck, Rosetta is just totally fucked yet still has the same, glaring edge. Great track.

There have been hundreds of songs about drug trips/expereinces over the years, but this is one of the absolute stand out, best-of-the-best.
