In spring 2009 they started working on the soundtrack, the series Needless, for which E-Zuka wrote the soundtracks and Kishow wrote the lyrics for the song "Modern Strange Cowboy". By the end of 2009, they released their third album, Brush the Scar Lemon. In 2011 they released their fourth album, Supernova, and in 2012 they released their fifth album Crack Star Flash.
