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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 85.1/100, a mean average of 84.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 16.6.

Their best song, and to be honest, their only great song....

Great KISS song, and their most enjoyable to date. If only they had more hits like this. The only flaw is that the drumming isn't great. The band spams the same beat through the faster paced parts. There's some unused potential here, but this remains one of KISS's icons with fantastic production.

A KISS classic. This is what they played as the first song when I saw them live and it literally got everyone on their feet.
