Muspy shows first release date regardless of user's country #32

Hi,

I noticed that for each release, the release date that shows up in Muspy is the date of the first release worldwide (data from musicbrainz), regardless of whether that release is relevant to the user's country.

For example, American Football's new album is released to the US on 2016-10-12 digitally and 2016-10-21 on CD/vinyl. However, in the UK it is released on 2016-09-30 digitally. Even though I am in the US, the only release date that shows up on muspy is 2016-09-30. This is a bit confusing, especially given the wide range of release dates.

Below are links to the musicbrainz release group page for this album and the American Football artist page on muspy. muspy only displays the UK release date.

Please note this is not the only time I have noticed this, just the only time I have investigated it.
