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 used to be my least favorite track on the album, but now I love it. The atmosphere is so foreboding until the tension gives and the track punches you in the gut. Swans really know how to build tension through the atmosphere of their tracks.
i think it is supposed to be from the perspective of a baby

Too quite, technical works in this song are incredible, every minute it gets better with more sounds and music to love, in a hard way
