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).

The long solos save this song because the intro that includes vocals is some of the most annoying Maiden music I've ever heard. They should have made this an instrumental. Sorry Bruce.
Somewhat forgettable Maiden track. Not bad, but certainly not a standout.
