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)

Of all the songs on Meteroa, this feels the least like nu metal - it has more of a hard rock/rap rock feel to it. I could easily see the Beastie Boys or Run DMC rapping over the heavy guitar and drums. But this song is fantastic because of it. Chester's screams are my favourite part of the song.
HANDS DOWN my favorite LP song of all time
