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)

It sounds like they incorporated some neo-psychedelia into their avant-rock roots, and this beautiful gem was the result

Reminds me of Jefferson Airplane's "After Bathing at Baxter's." In general very trippy late-60s vibe here.

Has one of my favorite lines of all time: "Does 'Fuck You' sound simple enough?"

Absolutely great song. Didn't even notice it's as long as it is. The "noise rock" part of it was even great.
