Push and Shove Songwriting Credits by No Doubt

Push and Shove is the sixth studio album by No Doubt, released in September 2012 on Interscope Records, the band's first album in eleven years, recorded after Stefani had completed three solo albums and each band member had pursued individual projects during the extended hiatus. Stefani, Dumont, Kanal, and Adrian Young wrote all material with various co-producers; 'Settle Down,' 'Looking Hot,' and the title track were the principal singles, with production that reflected the decade of electronic and pop influences that had developed in each member's individual work. Push and Shove debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 with 118,000 first-week sales and has been certified gold in the United States; 'Settle Down' reached the top five on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart. The album received mixed critical reception, with reviewers noting that the extended hiatus had not produced a particularly fresh creative statement and that the electronic production felt dated by 2012 standards, but the commercial performance confirmed the sustained loyalty of the band's fanbase. Push and Shove's commercial performance and the sustained fan loyalty it demonstrated confirmed that the No Doubt identity remained commercially viable after an eleven-year recording hiatus, and while its critical reception was more modest than the albums it followed, its existence confirmed that the creative partnership between Stefani and her bandmates retained a genuine commercial and artistic purpose.
