Their 3rd album "Family Genesis" was just released earlier this year, and next YMCK does covers in these two releases coming at the same time in September. The first is a full album of folk song covers redone in YMCK's 8-bit style that has conquered the world. The 2nd is a split cover mini-album of "city pops" popular songs together with De De Mouse.

Only old stuff and covers sell well in Japan's major market.
And that's more than what I could say about many other countries. CDs anyone? lol
