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 6% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 80.2/100, a mean average of 79.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.4/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.2.

actually It's one of my favs of this album, the sound in the beginning sounds like frogs jumping around a lot of dancing little elfs, that are freezing your feet to you not escape, and see their dance... they need feedback...lol

Vampiric tale drumbeat pulsating with angelic harp. Cool song. Great contrast to "x.y.u.". Another example of great sequencing on this album. Billy tries to comfort: "once again, you'll pretend to know that / There's an end, that there's an end to this begin / It will help you sleep at night".
