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 85.5/100, a mean average of 85.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.5.

So catchy and fun. This is one of my favorite career openers of all time.
Dave still breaking out those drumming chops!

This is a great start to their debut album. It really set the tone for what Foo Fighters would become.
Not one of the greatest songs ever. But for the alternative rock genre, this is pretty good. The singing isn't bad, and the drumming is good.
