^THIS !!
that is exactly the reason. western artists usually release the album first, and then they pop out singles. so all the material is new, and then they release singles with remixes and what not. thus it is much easier to have a theme. japanese artists are more single oriented, and release the album later. so you already know all the singles, and there are only a few new tracks.
i'm sure ayu didn't know the direction of her new album when she had to create a summer single, which was "sunrise/sunset". she just created a single that fitted her mood last summer imo.
