Do ya dig No Doubts tunes - everything from Dont Speak to Hey Baby? Well, the new CD, The Singles 1992-2003, is nothing but goodness from Gwen Stefani, Tom Dumont, Tony Kanal and Adrian Young.

No Doubt has been around for a long time. That's because their great style and great tunes add up to major staying power. If ya don't believe me, just check out the tunes on their latest album, The Singles 1992-2003 and let the music speak (err... sing) for itself.

No Doubts Greatest Hits

This album may not be called "Greatest Hits" but that's what it's about. You'll be able to rock-out to some of No Doubt's classic tunes like Just a Girl, Spiderwebs and Don't Speak. And, we're talking only the best versions of the best No Doubt songs - like Hey Baby featuring Bounty Killer and Underneath It All featuring cool chatter from Lady Saw. If you're like most, you only discovered No Doubt when their Tragic Kingdom disc took off. With The Singles 1992-2003, you'll be able to scope out songs that they did before that album, like Trapped in a Box.

No Doubt: New to You

To keep the album from being total deja vu, No Doubt recorded a new song - well, new to them (and probably you). The tune It's My Life is No Doubt's cover of an '80s song by a band called Talk Talk. It's still got an '80s feel to it, but Gwen Stefani's top-notch vocals give it a new punk edge.

The Bottom Line on The Singles

This record is a great way to get all the No Doubt goodness without any of the not-so goodness. If you're all about the hits and don't wanna buy a bunch of albums to get them - The Singles 1992-2003 is for you. If you dig B tracks, or don't dig retro hits, this isn't the No Doubt album for you.
