No Doubt Blast Back With ‘Catchy and Addictive’ New LP
“Their sixth album, still untitled, is about two months from completion, but they give a visitor to producer Spike Stent’s sleek Santa Monica studio a taste: “Settle Down” is a party-ready reggae blast featuring Stefani’s toasting skills; “One More Summer” updates the band’s ska-pop sound with pounding dance beats, arena-size guitars and a beyond-catchy chorus — “One more summer/One more weekend/I’m your lover/You’re my weakness.” Drummer Adrian Young tells his bandmates he can’t wait to play the song live: “I might lose control and shit all over myself.”
