 Description  « Hide

On e.g. http://musicbrainz.org/artist/f7133014-2377-427f-a4d4-fc1fea72b82f?va=1
which is the Various Artists display for the artist, the release group display is pretty messed up - there are 4 headers on that page saying "Album + Soundtrack", and 3 saying "Album + Compilation", each with a small random subset of the releases of that type.
It looks like the query used on the various artists release group list page isn't correctly grouping by release group subtypes.

+1

There seems to be primary sorting by year above release type so you end up with the non-sensical:

a - b: Album
b - c: Album + Secondary Type #1
c - d: Album
d - e: Album + Secondary Type #2
e - f: Album + Secondary Type #1

rather than:

g - h: Album
h - i: Album + Secondary Type #1
i - j: Album + Secondary Type #2

as one would expect, sorted by year within the category.

I guess this is because the former mixed group has just been split, without sorting each resulting group.

Only VA is like this. The standard artist page is fine.

This really ought to be fixed, these kinds of pages quite simply look like crap.

I've copied the same handling for sorting that was used for the non-VA page over, review incoming.
