What's wrong with No Doubt?
I can't stand her stuck-up-sounding voice.
I'm very curious about this. She sounds like she thinks she's better than us?
She has that snotty, dipshit high school rich girl voice, a combination of arrogant and nauseous. A decade earlier she would have sounded valley girl.

I will admit, there's something about her that feels like a spoiled rich girl. I've always felt that way.

I also can barely remember how "The Impression That I Get" goes. I just remembered that being the song that broke them HUGE and thinking "eh."
My God, that is one of the best songs of the decade for me.

I thought Wolt was being ironic. It had left no impression on him.

Man, you just failed at the 90's.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

That's certainly less defensible.

Still, she/ND had some solid tunes.

So weird that everyone is talking about their weird Stefani fanfic where she/no doubt made albums between tragic kingdom and their triumphant 2012 effort Push and Shove, where they put together a record after being totally absent from music for 17 years.

Is that like when people talk about that band U2? They put out a few great albums, but unfortunately broke up after War. I wonder what they have been up to since then. :shifty:

Return of Saturn has some decent tunes on it. It's flawed, but not a total wash.

The Devil's Diversion. Published in 1967, tho that's a slightly later edition. My copy even came from the Bob Jones University library and has a little tag saying that it's informational purposes only.
