No idea why this is happening.

I try to test http://earmilk.com/voices/maceagon-voyce/a-letter-to-david-bowie/ and http://earmilk.com/voices/maceagon-voyce/a-letter-to-david-bowie but it instead tests http://earmilk.com/.

And although test URL box says http://earmilk.com/, the source code of the tested page shows http://earmilk.com/2016/02/12/anenon-shares-visceral-new-track-once/ permalink.

While the canonical link shows http://earmilk.com

Upon talking to Montrey, we discovered some more weird behavior related to Permalinks in WP backend.

If turning off the "404 to 301 Redirect plugin," the David Bowie article goes to a 404.

Also possible strange redirection behavior besides all of this:

Apparently I was pulling the /voices/ version of the post, which was an error and only seen to logged-in admins, hence Google kept forwarding from this nonexistent page to earmilk.com.

Here is a header from Google's Structured Data Testing Tool request:
