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)

I find it interesting Mother is one of lowest rated tracks on the album for this site, additionally at the time of this comment, the song with the least amount of votes as well.
It’s very clearly one of the more centerpiece songs across the album and the best song in a few tracks and it’s well sequenced. Not my favorite track but I can’t help but think it’s pretty underrated here.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
