The mid-1990s mood shift: How ‘Clueless’ and ska-core clubbed grunge to death
“It’s so happy and fresh sounding!”
No Doubt are an American rock band formed in Anaheim, California, in 1986. Fronted by Gwen Stefani, the group rose to international fame during the 1990s by blending ska, punk, pop and new wave into a distinctive sound. After years of building a following, their breakthrough album Tragic Kingdom became one of the defining records of the ska-punk revival, producing hits including ‘Just a Girl’, ‘Spiderwebs’ and ‘Don’t Speak’. The band continued their success with albums such as Return of Saturn and Rock Steady, earning multiple Grammy Awards. Although members have pursued solo projects, No Doubt remain one of the most influential alternative rock bands of their era.
