Matsuo and Kamemoto resumed Glim Spanky activities as a duo in April 2010, utilizing support musicians. Matsuo stated that their first four years playing live houses in Tokyo were difficult, but because they were particular about their sound, stage presence, costumes and artwork, she was confident that the music industry would not leave behind a band with such a complete package. Glim Spanky had their first release in December 2013 when Space Shower Music released the mini-album Music Freak nationwide. In June 2014 the band released their second mini-album and their major label debut, Shōsō, via EMI R (now known as Virgin Records). They have since released six full-length studio albums, with 2017's Bizarre Carnival being their highest-charting to date.
