Artist's name is just symbols

Someone on the Plex forums is dealing with an album by an artist whose name is just a string of symbols:

Does anyone know what artist this is, and if they exist in MB? The issue the Plex user is reporting has to do with sorting, but I’m wondering how the artist’s name is handled in other databases.

You might also want to check out the “sillyname” tag for other examples of this sort of thing.

With regards to this specific artist: I think the guidelines for sort names say that the sort name should be the emoji string too, since the name consists entirely of “stylized” characters? Style / Artist / Sort Name - MusicBrainz
