I'm trying to download https://open.spotify.com/album/3qNCqYQyWvvgTapGWLTQsk?si=OW2Du-VcTX6Nj4Jy0juRzw

Settings:

When I hit download, it doesn't respect the Folder Structure:

C:\Users\blank\Music\Alienation\[2025] Three Days Grace - Alienation\01. Dominate.flac

Even if I change it to [{year}] {artist} - {album}, I get the same result.

Changing it to {artist}/[{year}] {album}, still puts the artist folder in the album name folder:

C:\Users\blank\Music\Alienation\Three Days Grace\[2025] Alienation\01. Dominate.flac

If I try another album - https://open.spotify.com/album/4wZ0kgFwNY5rBugUjXpaCy?si=yadK1ZdXRJmUVY8_xAOMCg

I always end up having album name/what ever structure I choose.

For this one Folder Structure is {artist}/[{year}] {album}, and I get:

C:\Users\blank\Music\Unforeseen Consequences\morch kovalski\[2018] Unforeseen Consequences\01. Black Mesa Theme.flac

I think the problem might be that the album/playlist name is unconditionally added here, before the template is applied:

Lyrics and Cover probably have the same problem.
