DOES is in the middle of a three-month run of monthly digital singles for its 20th debut anniversary. The second release, Nandatte Ii yo, comes out October 16, 2026, with a music video set for the same day, and the third single is still to come.
DOES is rolling out its 20th debut anniversary as three consecutive monthly digital singles rather than one album. The first, Ningen Shikkaku, arrived September 6. The second, Nandatte Ii yo, is set for digital release on Friday, October 16, 2026. The band has framed the schedule so that each track lands on its own date.
Nandatte Ii yo is a garage rock number built on low-register strummed guitar. Wataru Ujihara, the band's vocalist and guitarist, wrote both the lyrics and the composition. The jacket visual for the single is already out.
The music video will premiere on YouTube on Friday, October 16, 2026 at 21:00, the same day the song goes out digitally. A teaser video is already up. With the video pinned to the release date for the second run, the label has a fixed monthly cadence to hold to as it puts the third single together.
