I picked up the new no doubt album the other day. It’s OK. I’ve never been a really big fan of theirs, it was just kind of an impulse buy… I’m the worst at that.
I have to say though, the BEST investment I've made lately has been registering for an account with eMusic. For 14 bucks a month I can download entire albums from universal and related labels. They have some seriously killer blues, jazz, downtempo, acid jazz, etc. all in mp3 format (the only drawback is that it's 128k encoded. yuck!)
