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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 84.8/100, a mean average of 83.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.8.

great interlude! love how it acts as an outro to two headed boy part 1, great instrumentation too!
Awesome bridge between the two tracks! Such an inspired piece of music :)

The perfect interlude track. The instrumentation and sound effects add the perfect segue into the WWII themed second half the album. The percussion is driving and the horns are haunting.
Good dovetail into Holland, 1945
sounds like a funeral march

The song of the opening for Holland, 1945, it´s amazing, strange classic sounds that will never bona listen to again

The perfect bridge for two quick songs to connect with. Lets you take a breather. Not saying that this song isn't amazing on its own though.
Sustains the flow between 4 and 6 perfectly, and a good song to boot.

Kind of feels like an intro to Holland, 1945. But that sounds like I'm downplaying it's greatness, and it sure is great.
