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)

Skin and Bones really turned this into what it was always meant to be.

Classic with a hell of a hook. One of the best songs you will ever see live. Some great drumming from Dave Grohl.

classic track
They should've used a similar drum opening to When the Levee Breaks.
Probably their greatest '90s song after "This Is A Call"-it was used the best way possible in The Other Guys!

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
