I noticed that Pentemple is not showing up in the listed bands for Drone despite the sole album being listed as Drone.

furthermore when you search the database for Pentemple, it doesn't give the genre, just the name and country. The genre is also not listed on the artist page above the artist bio, only the country and band name is listed.

I've tried moving them to another genre and back to see if that changed anything both from the edit artist info section and the edit album section, neither of which fixed anything.

I've come across this issue before Sheavy. For some reason the genre doesn't get mapped to the artist on live albums, so if the artist only has a live album we're stuck. I'll raise with the webmasters.

It seems that it would need a significant code rewrite to correct this, Sheavy. I've tagged this as a normal album instead for now to get around the problem -
