No Doubt have confirmed that they are working with Major Lazer on their new record.

The band revealed the news by posting a picture of themselves with the production duo on Twitter, as well as explaining a few details about the recording session.

Band member Tom Kanal said: "Today's track is entitled "Push and Shove" Wish I could disclose more than a title. :-) (sic)."

He continued: "We're working on 3 different songs 2nite in 3 different rooms in the same studio complex, all at once. Like magic, somehow it works.

"@majorlazer in one of those rooms. Cutting drums with Adrian at the moment."

Major Lazer - made up of Diplo and Switch - recently worked on Beyoncé's 'Run The World (Girls)' and Nicola Roberts's debut single 'Beat Of My Drum'.

The album will be the first from No Doubt since their 2001 record Rock Steady.

The band recently revealed that they are close to completing the album and described their new material as "happy".
