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)

They could've made more weird lyrics for the song, but they only give a short sample of what the Twilight Zone is like. Kinda like in Bon Jovi's Mister Big Time, he only gives a little taste of what the big life is like.

Good song, but for some reason the intro guitar part always bothers me.
Acceptable track of a disappointing B-side. I love the shrieking guitar.

Definitely one of the album's two weak cuts.
