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 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 88.4/100, a mean average of 87.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.0.

I come and go with my appreciation of RATM, but I’ve always loved this song.
The riff, the drum beat, the Maynard bridge and scream, the D the E the F…. You get the picture. Excellent track.

Maynard feat is literally sick on this one.
