After No Doubt sold more than 10 million copies of Tragic Kingdom, riding that wave of success without toppling over must have been a daunting mission. No sweat for No Doubt. The band toiled as national unknowns with a loyal local following for a decade before that album's release, and during that time the band members were learning how to be better songwriters and musicians. The follow-up, Return of Saturn, glides along that continuum of songcraft perfection. The band presents a cleaner, less apologist representation of their influences. They pull off some of the more difficult maneuvers of pure reggae, ground-pounding ska, and Cars-esque New Wave. Gwen Stefani, the fearless Orange County princess, belts a powerful pout, her Mae West-meets-Siouxsie Sioux vocal bravado the bungee cord that springs in between the band's retro tendencies and SoCal pop-punk attitude. It seems believable that she could stamp her foot and always get her way, but her self-deprecating confessions evade brattiness. Songs like "Bathwater" and "Ex-Girlfriend" reveal the singer's vulnerability to being hurt or dumped on, and the band's sense of humor and exploration (albeit firmly controlled) matches the songs' sentiments. This group is growing out and tightening up, and while the rest of the ska-punk surfer-dude bands do nothing more than repeat history, No Doubt is creating it. --Beth Massa |

not as much love, but still a good album by Melody N. Pilotte (San Francisco)  4 Stars
October 20, 2009
I don't AODRE this album as much as I LOVE Tragic Kingdom, but it is still a great little album. I find some songs are filler, while others make the entire album come together. I love Simple Kinda Life as one of the most touching tracks.

Didn't arrive in time as promised by K. L. Strode (OH, USA) 4 Stars
June 21, 2009
I had order this cd and it was quoted to arrive in 5-7 business days. When the arrival date came and pasted and called and complained. After some resistance from th customer care agent he finally agreed to send me my cd's by expedited FedEx. The first set of cd's didn't arrive until another week later. I advise to never have something like that to arrive my US Mail. It is a nightmare.

I really like this CD. This group has a different kind of vibe to their music and I am happy that they are sharing it with the world.

"Sometimes I wish for a mistake..." by ADRIENNE MILLER (TENNESSEE)  3 Stars
May 28, 2008
Return of Saturn by No Doubt is considered their most mature but least-selling album. This album is good but not brilliant, there are a lot of slow songs with heavy lyrics which are nice but depressing. Bathwater, Dark Blue, New, A Simple Kind of Life, and Magic's in the Makeup are standouts but the rest of the album gets boring pretty fast. This is a mixed bag but I like it better than Tragic Kingdom.

| Tragic Kingdom
by No Doubt
No Doubt's 1995 release, Tragic Kingdom, brought Southern California's ska scene to a national stage while elevating the band to star status. An irresistible mix of reggae, punk, and power pop, Tragic Kingdom scored several hits, among them "Spiderwebs," "Just a Girl," and "Don't Speak." Singer Gwen Stefani's looks made the group MTV shoo-ins, but her soaring voice is the real star, as evidenced by such songs as "Happy Now?"--a classic you'll-regret-you-dumped-me anthem that recalls...
