What is a • b • l • m • u in album list?

For some time I started seeing this thing when I go to an artist’s “page”. I like to listen full albums and I see a list of albums and underneath it an album or two with this “a • b • l • m • u” as title.

Here’s two examples:

In the case of Svalbard, I would like to see “The weight of…” album together with the rest.

This is bad tags, usually a broken version of beets.

Thanks… I’ll check it.

@Tolriq that was it. Thanks for the heads-up. I’ll have to write a script to change some tags in my library.

I’m pretty sure this is down to bad information on some albums in MusicBrainz. It’s the release type or something like that. I’m guessing some clever person wanted a unique way to display this that worked perfectly on their system, but badly on everyone else’s!

There’s ones for s • n • g • l • e • i and o • c • p • l • a • m • t • i • o • n • i too….
