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)

"bodies" ups the ante of devastation, both lyrically and with the guitar, stating plainly "love is suicide". Those who perish to love?: "The empty bodies stand at rest / Casualties of their own flesh / Afflicted by their dispossession". You can feel the pain when he screams "no bodies!". "love is suicide" indeed.
