All "No Doubt", or what?

The time right away: Not at all. Who on Gwen's solo debut is a continuation of easy alternative ska - rock mix of No Doubt expected or has even hoped, will be bitterly disappointed here. Rock sounds are rarely indicated, electronic pop dominated. However, the whole thing sounds not really know how often mentioned, for a 80s revival, modern Popeinflüsse the sprint. Whether this is to be considered positive or negative, of course, remains a matter of taste.
I liked for my part and like No Doubt mostly. In particular, the rocking pieces and ballads. Gwen's solo debut is, however, collect dust with me. To electronically to artificially to cliché-laden Plastikpop. It can be fun, certainly - but not me. Nevertheless, the album is perfectly produced, Gwen's voice is as convincing as the Arrangement. Who the change of style takes no offense, or the Elektopop is attached anyway, will love the album. For those who prefer the rockier sounds, should as far as possible only intense listen, rather he / she strikes.
A solid pop album is here so ago, no more, no less - it will find its fans, clearly. But I remain at No Doubt ...
