lyrics: In Genius backend, tolerate artist disambiguation markers #4791
Comments
This sounds annoying! It would be helpful to experiment with different ways of resolving the ambiguity. For example, does simply dropping the last two-letter word always work, or does that ever introduce ambiguity with a different artist? Here's where to start when tweaking the matching heuristic: Line 361 in 9527a07

if i regex replace [<2 letter country code>] it seems to work old hit_artist = hit["result"]["primary_artist"]["name"] new hit_artist = re.sub(r'.[\(\[]..[\)\]]','',hit["result"]["primary_artist"]["name"]) |
Nice, that seems like a good step! An eventual PR should try both (the original and truncated name, if any) to make sure we don't miss artists that happen to look like this. |
This commit introduces a distance threshold mechanism to the Genius backend and unifies its implementation across the rest of backends that perform searching and matching artists and titles. - Create a new `SearchBackend` base class with a method `check_match` that performs checking. - Start using undocumented `dist_thresh` configuration option for good, and mention it in the docs. This controls the maximum allowable distance for matching artist and title names. These changes aim to improve the accuracy of lyrics matching, especially when there are slight variations in artist or title names, see #4791.

Problem
importing Genius lyrics for specific Artists does not work.
The reason is that the artists are not know in Genius with just their bandname (Psychonaut or Brutus) but due to multiple bands having the same name, know as <>-<> so psychonaut-be (https://genius.com/artists/Psychonaut-be) and brutus-be https://genius.com/artists/brutus-be
