We mentioned recently how No Doubt ranked #3 in Billboard’s poll of the Most Anticipated Albums of 2012,and was also on a similar list compiled by San Diego radio station LIVE 105. Now music blog MuuMuse has included No Doubt on its list of the Most Anticipated Albums of 2012. We are loving all of the media excitement over the new album!
No Doubt, TBA (Sixth Studio Album)
What it is: The ten year reunion of a legendary pop-rock outfit.
Expected shelf date: TBA
Confirmed tracks: “Push and Shove,” “One More Summer,” “Settle Down,” “Undercover” (Other confirmed song titles are Dreaming the Same Dream,Easy,Gravity,Heaven,Sparkle,and Looking Hot.)Production by: Spike Stent, Diplo, Anthony Gorry
What we know: The band’s been writing and recording this upcoming LP since 2008 (their first in over a decade since 2001′s Rock Steady). In June, Rolling Stone described some of the tracks off the upcoming record during a preview at producer Spike Stent‘s studio, including the “party-ready reggae” of “Settle Down” and the “pounding dance beats” of “One More Summer.” More spoilers have come by the way of Twitter, including a Major Lazer (Diplo) collaboration back in July, as well as a tweet from Brixton Angels‘ Anthony Gorry from inside the studio.
MuuMuse hopes to hear: Ska-pop for the 22nd century and beyond.
