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 86.8/100, a mean average of 86.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.5.

A large favorite for most on the album. For me it doesn't evolve enough to be on par with most of the album's frontrunners. Still a solid track in any regard.
What an excellent track. Great beat and sound. But the vocals are just superb. Lovin' the contribution of by Whang. Love Murphy's wailing. Love the backing vocal on the chorus.

Step Brothers!

After watching the performance of this song at Madison Square Garden, it is one my favourite favourite LCD Soundsystem songs.
Catchy
