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 90.6/100, a mean average of 89.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.6.

Major Doors vibes here, in a good way.

The saddest single piece of music I've ever heard.
My favorite song of theirs. It sort of combines the sounds of their two albums as well as manifests a new soul of a sound that could be an intended indicator to their third album's potential sound.
Incredibly powerful, definitely one of their best songs. The perfect ending to a perfect album.
