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 91.0/100, a mean average of 89.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 15.7.

I dunno if I'm being a bit predictable here, but it took me until *that scene* in Lost In Translation for the penny to drop on Sometimes. Don't get me wrong, I've always loved it, but after that bit smacked me in the face, the whole thing just fell into place. Firmly one of my favourite songs of all time, it aches to listen to.

The acoustic ballad of the album. Except it's still soaked in the ocean of distortion that is "Loveless."

May be the easiest song for anyone to get into on first listen for this album. A relaxing piece.

A song that builds in repetition, but quite uniquely. A graceful melody gets louder as the song progresses, each time you hear it, the melody becomes more beautiful.

Probably my favorite track of the album. The fact that there is no drums is one of the reasons why some like this track. The heavy and fuzzy guitars are the main driving force
