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 88.4/100, a mean average of 87.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.2.

Unlike 'Jesus, etc', which I imediately fell in love for, this was a grower for me. I love it so much now
For some reason this song reminds me of Cut Your Hair.
"Did you see the drummer's hair?"

Like six or seven other songs on this amazing album, this is one of the best songs ever.

Like a experimental song with anonymous drums for intro, GREAT
Can you say experimental?
