No Doubt - Tragic Kingdom

Tragic Kingdom is the third studio album by American rock band No Doubt, originally released in October 1995 via Trauma and Interscope Records.

Tragic Kingdom was the final album to feature original keyboardist Eric Stefani, who left the band before the record’s release. It was produced by Matthew Wilder and recorded in Los Angeles between 1993 and 1995. Seven singles were released from it, including ‘Just A Girl’, which charted on the Billboard Hot 100 and the UK Singles Chart; and the band’s signature song, ‘Don’t Speak’, which topped the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay and reached the top five of numerous international charts.

Tragic Kingdom eventually sold over 16 million copies worldwide, and was certified diamond in the United States and Canada, platinum in the United Kingdom, and triple platinum in Australia.

Tragic Kingdom also helped to initiate the ska revival of the 1990s, persuading record labels to sign more ska bands and helping them to attract more mainstream attention. The album was later ranked number 441 on Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

This album is a 2022 repress on black vinyl housed in a single pocket sleeve with a printed insert, pressed in the US via Interscope Records.
