Review by MiXCHure Apr 26, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)

This is a modern-day classic. Infectious alternative rock from the beginning to the end, with the very awesome Gwen Stefani at the helm, singing her heart out. A lot of songs have been overplayed in American radio, but they are still great pop songs nonetheless. Fast at times, slow at times, loud at times, and quiet at times. A very eclectic mix of different styles. No Doubt shifts from ska to soft rock, to disco, and back to ska, all in one CD, in an ease that makes the disc great to listen to. Like rock? Like pop? Get this CD.

Some tracks I recommend are:

"Spiderwebs" is just really good. If you've heard it, then you know what I'm talking about, if not, you should hear it.
"Excuse Me Mister" is a little pop-punk ditty.
"Just A Girl" is a classic. You know this song.
"Sunday Morning" is a nice rolling alternative rock song.
"You Can Do It" ventures away from the alternative sound and goes into some disco. Very good stuff. More people need to make disco songs. That would be kick-ass.
"End It On This" is an awesome alternative rock song. Hard to describe. Jangly pianos, hot guitar riffs.

You out there who like either rock or pop, get this CD. It is definitely worth it.
