    Help me out here - I’ve only played around with bandcamp a bit, why are the release dates not accurate for albums? For example, Vortura has a release date listed as june 1 2020?

      Might relate to the digital release of the album rather than the original release.

      @mountainCalledMonkey @_ed in my experience, when you upload to bandcamp you can choose the original release date, but if you don’t, it defaults to the upload date. So it’s more of the date it was released on Bandcamp.
