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 87.5/100, a mean average of 86.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.5.

I doubt any band ever has had to change lead singer because of a tragedy and produced an opening song so brilliant on the next album as this

An excellent opener, the tolling bell sets the scene. A superb guitar riff to follow and then you have a great rock 'n roller.

I generally find AC/DC to be pretty overrated. I know their music's not supposed to be super complex and all that, but the simplistic style is just not for me. But I really enjoy this song, mainly for that main riff

My favorite by them, the intro makes all the difference.

Pocos arranques in crescendo (de campanas y guitarras) tan tremebundos y espeluznantes como los de este tema, uno de los señeros en la discografía de estos traviesos australianos. Excelente.
