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 7% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 79.7/100, a mean average of 77.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.0/100. The standard deviation for this track is 17.1.

The "Free--From Society" repetition gets on my nerves. Luckily, the song finishes with nice guitar and keyboard solos.

Reapers was the best song off the album, then The Handler was basically as good, and then Defector fell slightly, but it still kicked ass. Although it's in a major scale, it's still really heavy. And that solo is really weird, but in a good way.

The solo gives me chills. It's very simple but sounds so spectacular at the same time.
