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 has a Bayesian average rating of 74.8/100, a mean average of 74.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.7.

The weakest, almost pop-like cut from the album, but still worthy of an 8/10. If this had come from any other rock band, it would be at the top of their heap, but from Sabbath in general, and on this album in particular, it sags just a bit.

This sounds a lot more like something that would come from Dio's solo career rather than Black Sabbath, but then again this wasn't the same Sabbath that existed with Ozzy.
