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)

The Cambridge science fair sounds a pretty dangerous place to go where monotony doesn't get more experimental than this. It's my country out there and i like it. And I like this song too...... I think.

Even on my first listen, and even as weird as this song starts out, I knew this shit was gonna be insane. As it grew more tense, I was waiting for that intense finish, and there it was. It is rare for a song to make me smile ear-to-ear on first listen but the ones that do really stick with me. This is one of those songs.
