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 88.2/100, a mean average of 87.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.9.

The Pretender is one of the band’s prime examples of being really mainstream and accessible but unique and tasteful as well.
This song boasts an undeniable and unforgettable chorus.
The hardest hitting Foo song, Chris REALLY brings it on this guitar riff.
Among the best rock songs of the 2000s.
