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 90.0/100, a mean average of 89.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.0.

I'd have to argue that it's their best song.

Surprised JMan didn't make a specific comment about the 'anit-Jesus' nature of this song...

Might be the most defining AiC song. One of the coolest grooves ever and the solo is excellent. The adjectives below fit very well too, though I think they musically have made darker songs, while this one is in middle. Quality-wise, it's on top.

Heavy, baddass, creepy, cool as hell. Great song.
