- “Trapped in a Box” / No Doubt (1992) Written by Gwen Stefani, Eric Stefani, Tony Kanal, and Tom Dumont. No Doubt’s debut single “Trapped in a Box” started out as a poem Dumont wrote in school.
- “Open the Gate”/ The Beacon Collection (1995) Written by Gwen Stefani, Eric Stefani, Tom Dumont, Tony Kanal, Adrian Young. The Beacon Collection was a snapshot of No Doubt at the cusp of their groundbreaking Tragic Kingdom from the opening “Open the Gate.”
- “Just A Girl” / Tragic Kingdom (1995) Written by Gwen Stefaniand Tom Dumont. The lead single off Tragic Kingdom, “Just A Girl” was also the first song Stefani wrote for No Doubt after her brother left the band.
- “Spiderwebs” / Tragic Kingdom (1995) Written by Gwen Stefaniand Tony Kanal. When keyboardist and main No Doubt songwriter, Eric Stefani, left the band in 1994 to pursue a career in animation (including working on The Simpsons), Gwen Stefani was finding herself as a lyricist in the band.
On the 30th anniversary of No Doubt's first official gig, bassist Tony Kanal shares his story of being at the show and joining ND soon afterwards. He also e...

- Tragic Kingdom (1995) One of the definitive albums of the 90s, full-stop. Tragic Kingdom turned a scrappy ska punk band into multi-platinum-selling rock stars (16 million copies, if you’re counting), all fronted by someone who'd become one of the most famous faces on the planet at the time.
- Rock Steady (2001) By the time Rock Steady arrived in 2001, No Doubt had moved on from anything resembling punk rock and instead decided to make an album worthy of their pop megastar influences.
- Return Of Saturn (2000) It took five years, plenty of personal and professional travails and a clear change in direction for No Doubt to follow the biggest album of their career.
- The Beacon Street Collection (1995) Self-recorded and self-released by the band in frustration due to the lack of interest Interscope Records were showing them, The Beacon Street Collection is something of a lost gem in the No Doubt back catalogue.

2001’s Rock Steady is widely regarded as No Doubt’s most musically adventurous album, touching on everything from electropop and dancehall to new wave. Gwen Stefani’slyrics are equally diverse, extolling the virtues of partying one minute and reflecting on her relationship with then-boyfriend Gavin Rossdale the next. Underneath It All is one of its...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb_zZ3xItPI After an eleven-year absence, No Doubt returned in 2012 with their sixth studio album, Push and Shove. Despite their long absence, they’d clearly lost none of their commercial appeal, soaring to No. 3 on the Billboard 200 after selling 115,000 copies in the first week alone. Its lead single, Settle Down, ...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiBX-ESFDF0 As Rolling Stone writes, Stefani delivers a powerhouse performanceon the excellent Sunday Morning. After kicking off with a stellar drum solo from Adrian Young, it builds and builds, with Stefani’s snarling delivery proving a perfect match to the bitter lyrics. Released as the fifth single from the band’s...
In 1984, Talk Talk earned a Top 40 hit with It’s My Life. Almost 20 years later, No Doubt revisited the song for their greatest hits record, The Singles 1992–2003. In fairness, it’s not quite as good as the original, but it’s still excellent, with a feel-good vibe and a stellar vocal from Stefani. Released as a single in October 2003, it reached No...
If any song can be credited with bringing ska to the mainstream in the 1990s, it’s Spiderwebs. A super catchy but unapologetically dark song about a phone stalker who won’t get the hint, it’s one of the band’s biggest earworms, with a hypnotizing central melody that’s guaranteed to get stuck in your head for days. Although it wasn’t officially rele...
From both a commercial and critical perspective, the 2001 album Return of Saturn wasn’t No Doubt’s finest hour. The following year’s Rock Steady was a different story entirely, displaying a staggering musical range and an astonishing degree of lyrical dexterity. Hella Good is one of its gems, a hugely creative piece of music that manages to incorpo...
By 2000, Stefani and Gavin Rossdale were settling into a life of domestic bliss. On Simple Kind of Life, she explores the conflict of wanting marriage and kids while also wanting to maintain her independence. Somber and raw, it’s No Doubt at their moodiest, and their most melodic. Released as the second single from the band’s fourth album, Return o...
As NME says, Just a Girl is the closest thing you can get to the nineties, distilled into three minutes. Released on the band’s third album, 1995’s Tragic Kingdom, Stefani rocks hard as she rails against sexism and female stereotypes, moving from a hyperfeminine vocal to a vicious one as the beat gets ever more furious. Widely considered to be the ...
As diffuser.fm writes, it took No Doubt five years to release the follow-up to their 1995 breakthrough, but apparently, they were saving all their best songs for the album that came after it. Hey Baby, the lead single from Rock Steady, is one of them. Big, flashy, and wonderfully funky, it became a massive hit, spending three weeks at No. 5 on the ...
If you remember the 1990s, you’ll remember Don’t Speak. One of the biggest songs of the decade, it’s a tune that’s almost guaranteed to give you a twinge of nostalgia every time it comes on the radio. Written by Stefani in the wake of her break up to No Doubt’s bassist Tony Kanal, it’s hypnotically dramatic, combining intimate lyrics with a stunnin...
