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 6% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 80.6/100, a mean average of 80.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.7.

It actually needs something... For me
It's like Zero, just not as good. Nothing wrong with that

Not a bad opener.
Good song!

This slow-build shredder kicks off the "twilight to starlight" second disc. It's an ominous beginning musically detailing the "king of horseflies, dark prince of death" telling of the remnants of a love lost with "A veiled promise to never die / On dead highways".
