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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 85.7/100, a mean average of 84.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.0.

Damn this song kicks ass. It's pretty heavy for an Arcade Fire song.

For all the disco-y vibe of this album, there is some monster classic-rock riffing here.

This song really has grown on me, didn't like it at first, I love it more the more I hear it (pretty much like the whole Reflektor album)
