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)

Most underrated song on the album.
Very unforgettable
Probably the most underrated track on the album. The bass is just flawless.

Damn, does anyone else hear the tone of the bass and the motif of the drums being an influence on Danny Carey and Justin Chancellor of Tool?
What a great track.
brilliant
