Gwen Stefani has confirmed that she plans to reunite with her No Doubt bandmates to record a new album next year.

The 'Don't Speak' hitmakers have been on an extended hiatus since Stefani launched a successful solo career with her Love.Angel.Music.Baby. album in 2004, but she is now desperate to work with her bandmates again.

She told Galaxy FM: "I got an idea in my head about what we could do and now that's all I can think about - doing a No Doubt record."

Her bandmates Tom Dumont, Tony Kanal and Adrian Young are already working on material for the 2008 release.
