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 86.3/100, a mean average of 85.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.2.

This is a masterpiece. Unbelievable how everyone appears to fly in different directions, but it remains a cohesive whole all the time. Amazing. Mindboggling.
Some of the craziest jamming I've ever heard a band play, but the volume range is sometimes a bit much on this track, especially with the slightly drawn out violin segment.
escalofrios, intro lento y de repente wow
