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)

Cromer rather than Channing on drums. An improvement. But Grohl where are you we need you?
Second song on the album and again dealing with shame. Bad things had happened to Kurdt.
Good song but is overshadowed by Blew and 'Girl' either side.

I didn't expect it to be that catchy.
