No Doubt Album Release News

It's been a long 12 years since American rock band No Doubt released a new album.  They all went off to find themselves, get married, have babies.  When news of a reunion emerged last year I was very excited, as much as I enjoyed Gwen's solo career I prefer her as part of this band.


They release their long awaited new single Settle Down this coming Monday, the same day the video will premier.  The band have been recording mini documentaries over the last few months and posting them to YouTube and the latest shows the making of the video.  They explain that it features them all driving from the corners of the globe to reform for a gig which I feel is quite fitting given the differing paths they have decided to take over the last decade.  They also confirm that the Jamaican dance hall influence is still there that added flavor to their last album Rock Steady in 2001, I'm hoping there is some progression here though and they are not just retreading old ground.


The new album is called Push And Shove and will be released, I assume worldwide, on September 26th.  Until then here's the latest webisode and another YouTube video that features a 2 minute snippet of the new single.
