All record companies are trying to cash in on the pop-punk rage of the late 1990s: Underground Baby was released by Magic Stone (1998), New Pants by Modern Sky (1998, 2000, 2002, 2006 & 2008), Catcher in the Rye by Red Star and Dong Music...... Until 2008, the bands kept on selling well, securing a remarkably stable place in Beijing's rock culture.
