No Doubt is included on San Diego radio station LIVE 105’s list of the Top 10 Most Anticipated Albums of 2012! Speaking of such lists,be sure to keep voting for No Doubt in Billboard’s poll of the Most Anticipated Album of 2012-we can also type in Gwen’s name for Best Fashion,and Gwen and Gavin for Hottest Couple. The poll closes at midnight tonight and the results will be posted at Billboard.com next week!
The band is expected to release the long-awaited follow up to 2001′s “Rock Steady” in 2012.
To date, working titles of nine songs from the band’s new sixth album have been released so far: “One More Summer”, “Gravity”, “Settle Down”, “Easy”, “Dreaming the Same Dream”, “Heaven”, “Undercover”, “Push and Shove” and “Sparkle”. According to several tweets on their official Twitter, the whole album has been recorded with producer Mark “Spike” Stent (who worked on their previous album Rock Steady) but they have also collaborated with Diplo and Switch. The band interviewed with journalists from Entertainment Weekly in which they released new lyrics from the songs “Settle Down” and “One More Summer”. No Doubt previously revealed they are taking influence from ska and reggae music for the new record, and drummer Adrian Young was quoted to have hoped for new music to be released in fall 2011. The band decided to not release the album until 2012, stating they did not want to rush it. (EIT Edit: Tom shared another song title recently,”Looking Hot”,and we know that the band has been working with production team Brixton Angels.)
