In the Meantime and In Between Time is the seventh studio album by Canadian punk rock band SNFU, released in 2004. The record was the band's first full-length studio album since FYULABA in 1996, and would be the last to feature founding guitarist Marc Belke. The band released the album on Belke's own Rake Records imprint.
In 1998, SNFU suffered several blows when their contract with Epitaph Records expired and founding guitarist Brent Belke and longtime drummer Dave Rees both quit. Nevertheless, they began performing as a four-piece with new drummer Sean Stubbs and slowly amassed new material for a seventh studio album. Their first demo session for the new album came in early 1999 at Studio X in Vancouver, with Stubbs and bassist Rob Johnson completing the group alongside founding members Marc Belke and singer Ken Chinn.
In November 2000, the band returned to Mushroom Studios in Vancouver to record more material. They had previously recorded The One Voted Most Likely to Succeed and FYULABA at Mushroom, and now employed former sound man Simon Head to help in the studio. Although Chris Thompson had replaced Stubbs, drummer Trevor MacGregor of Treble Charger was employed as a studio member for the recording session. The band recorded "Cockatoo Quill", "Head Smashed In Buffalo Jump", "Hole In Your Soul", and the unreleased "What Will It Take to Break You?" tracks during these sessions.
The band had been playing new songs, including "Cheap Transistor Radio" and "Head Smashed In Buffalo Jump", at concerts for a few years. In June 2001, the band performed its final show of this era at a punk tribute concert to Trooper. New bassist Matt Warhurst replaced Johnson, and Brent Belke returned for a guest appearance. Shortly thereafter, the band entered a hiatus, and Marc Belke relocated to Toronto. SNFU remained dormant for nearly two years.
