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 88.6/100, a mean average of 87.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.1.

Excellent example of psychedelic

¿Pueden imaginarse que esta es la PRIMERA canción del PRIMER disco de Pink Floyd? Y tengo que confesar con un poco de vergüenza que después unas 5 escuchadas finalmente me ha llegado a parecer una obra maestra. Increíble la atmósfera a la que logra inducirte esta canción.
Como buena muestra de space rock, te logra transportar al espacio. Así como la magnus opus Space Oddity del maestro Bowie o Subterranean Homesick Alien, otra obra maestra de Radiohead. Cuando escucho "Astronomy Domine" y cierro los ojos literalmente me siento en el intro de 2001: A Space Odyssey, en una nave espacial con una vista panorámica de los planetas, o sino que me encuentro en una nave espacial dentro de ese videojuego antiguo de Nintendo llamado Galaga. Esta es una de las pocas canciones que logra concebir esa imagen en mi mente tan acertadamente.
Solo me queda decir que ya me dieron ganas de escuchar nuevamente The Piper at the Gates of Dawn y luego porqué no inmiscuirme en toda la discografía de Pink Floyd, que es algo que vengo queriendo hacer hace tiempo.
The first track on their first album is a masterpiece.
