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 4% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 81.5/100, a mean average of 80.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.1.

Awesome vocal from lee (especially the part that he screams KICK IT) and some dirty guitar works. I don't know why it's rating that lower than others but definitely deserves better rating to me.
Great song, but obviously a step below most the others on this record. Some really awesome vocals by Lee are in here.
I like this track a lot, I don't know if people this like this track a lot. In fact I think it's an underrated track

Pretty good, but nothing too memorable. The chords are a bit dry.
