No Doubt grace the May cover of SPIN magazine – and I have to say they all look great! Gwen is not the only one who is aging quite gracefully. I’m going to the Boston stop on their summer reunion tour, and this cover only adds to my excitement. They’re baaaaaack! Let’s hope a new album follows in the next year or two!
No Doubt’s new single, a cover of Adam & The Ants’ classic “Stand and Deliver”, has been released to the net as No Doubt is giving away downloads of their entire discography, including the new song, when you purchase tickets to their summer reunion tour. I love No Doubt, and while this song has its catchy moments, it’s not really what I was expecting. Do you think this song will be yet another hit for the supergroup? Either way, I’m still excited as hell to see them live this June! Listen to the new song below.

“Your wildness scares me;
so does your freedom.”
At work doing some purchase orders. iPhone on shuffle.
Forgot how great this song is, (and the Hype Williams anime-inspired video).

“The whole reason for going on this tour was to have fun, try on all our favorite songs again and to get inspired to make new music. It feels good to be all together again.” – Gwen Stefani
One of my all-time favorite bands, No Doubt, is slowly planning a comeback – and their first step? A major U.S. tour with the popular new band Paramore as an opening act! Hayley Williams, Paramore’s lead singer says of the tour,
“What a dream tour! We couldn’t be more excited to kick off 2009 by touring with a band like No Doubt.”
