Gwen Stefani: "We are working on new material."

Singer Gwen Stefani said her band No Doubt will be working on more material but it's not a reunion as they never split.

The 41-year-old star has worked on her own solo career over the past few years but said she still has room for her band No Doubt, with a new album rumoured to be on the cards later this year.

She said to UK's Stylist magazine: 'It was never a break-up. It was always going to happen. We never stopped for all those years, but after Rock Steady [their fifth album], everybody was ready for a little time off.'

The star added that her solo career happened by chance after one single did well.

She said: 'It was more about making a dance record, I didn't even think of it as a solo opportunity. It was more of a creative project. I wasn't even going to tour but it was so amazing, how can you resist?'

Gwen Stefani’s Solo Days Are Over

It is with great sadness I type this post. Gwen Stefani has no plans to ever go solo again.

“That was a moment in time,” Stefani tells Entertainment Weekly about her solo career. “It went on a little longer than we all thought it would, because it was inspired and you have to go with wherever you’re at in that time in your life… [But] everything works out how it should.”

In April, Stefani spoke to Ryan Seacrest about the new No Doubt album, “We’ve been going for awhile trying to make this record and it s been super challenging but really fun. We’re trying to enjoy the moment of writing and…it’s just a really fun process and I think it’s going to be out this year,” she explained. “It’s generally a really happy album…the main thing we were trying to do is write really catchy good songs…we got about 10 songs done and we want to do a few more just in case, but it’s a really good record, I really love this record.”

The band are expected to make a special announcement about their future plans on Friday. I am assuming it will be album details. No Doubt’s last album, Rock Steady, was released in 2001. Rock Steady spawned three top 20 hits: “Underneath It All,” “Hella Good” and “Hey Baby.”
