Retro fridays and tragic kingdom by no doubt

By tragic kingdom I mean the album itself and also it's a play on words of the magic kingdom. When it came out this album made waves and was extremely popular on the radio. I couldn't go to a store without hearing don't speak or just a girl or sunday morning. I associate kb toys and super kmart and going to the mall to this album. What made the band's popularity explode was the media focusing on gwen stefani. I remember there was an interview with her in a disney adventures magazine and she always wore a bindi(indian jewelry on her forehead) and she also got famous for her style of dress

Obviously don't speak became the breakout and still is, hit but it is a solid alt rock album that came out in a male dominated genre in a unexpected time. The album still holds up well today and giving it a listen always brings me back to the 90's when it seems like it was blasting out of every car. It's also interesting to see how gwen's fashion style has changed throughout the years
