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)

Is this the first non negative track on the album? Or is K now digging out people who populate car boot sales and flea markets. Is no one free from his angst. Mind you if you are a car boot sales person isn't it nice to have a song written about you. Who knows?
Hold on listen to Kurdt's lyrics.These are good. First verse - I think he's given some thought to this -nice story developing. Let's hear the 2nd. Well just in case you didn't hear the first properly, this is repeated for your delectation. And the 3rd. Oh dear the same again. Oh well things never change. Nice try though

What an interesting intro, with an incredible Heavy Metal Noise guitar and shoutly chorus, and the solo trying to be virtuoso sounds a little good
