Rating metrics: Help 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)

Great opener to their 1st album. Blew a track all about living up to expectations. It lives up to mine.
'Here is another word that rhymes with F(sh)AME'. It begins here Kurt whether you want it or not.

Extremely bass intro, and the solo from the song tries to be more virtuoso than the Nevermind one´s, and in my opinion, metal riff, really good
