No Doubt

Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. No Doubt is the self-titled debut studio album by the alt-rock/ska band No Doubt, released on March 17, 1992, on Interscope Records. The album was originally recorded as an independent release but was re-recorded after the band was signed to Interscope. It was produced by Dito Godwin and recorded in Los Angeles. The album was released during a period when the United States was primarily focused on grunge music, a genre that contrasted with No Doubt's upbeat commercial sound. Despite strong tours, the album did not meet the record company's sales expectations, selling only 30,000 copies. The record company declined to fund the release of a single from it, prompting No Doubt to independently release the album's only single, "Trapped in a Box". Following their departure from Interscope, the band independently produced and released a follow-up to No Doubt, The Beacon Street Collection, in 1995. This album achieved better commercial success than the band's debut album, selling 100,000 copies. This success led Interscope to finance and support their third album, Tragic Kingdom.
