Never Trouble Trouble Until Trouble Troubles You is the eighth studio album by Vancouver, British Columbia punk rock band SNFU. The album was released in 2013 through Cruzar Media. It marks their first album in nine years, and first output recorded without co-founding guitarist Marc Belke.
In 2007, vocalist Ken Chinn reformed SNFU after a two-year hiatus with former bassist Ken Fleming now playing guitar. This was the first SNFU lineup not to feature founding guitarist and principle songwriter Marc Belke. The group spent its first four reformed years performing old material from the band's previous eras only.
The group's rhythm section had solidified around drummer Jon Card and bassist Denis Nowoselski by 2010, when second guitarist Sean Colig was also added. The following year, they were dealt several blows. Chinn contracted a severe case of pneumonia, forcing the band to cancel several tour dates. Rehearsing further became complicated when Fleming emigrated to Japan, and Nowoselski relocated to the Northwest Territories.
Despite these setbacks, the group remained active. Late in 2011, Fleming, Colig, and Card recorded a five-song demo in Adam Payne's recording studio in Vancouver. This was their first new material since reforming in 2007 and first studio recording since the In the Meantime and In Between Time album of 2004.
The band led the When Pigs Fly tour in 2012 in support of Chris Walter's SNFU biography What No One Else Wanted to Say. Nowoselski departed and was replaced by Kerry Cyr for the tour's final two shows. The band continued to circulate the unfinished demo among record executives. They received interest from Dan Lefrancois and his Cruzar Media imprint, who had helped them complete the demo by arranging to have Chinn's vocal tracks added in July. Liking the demo and Fleming's additional new material, Cruzar agreed to release a new full-length album, the band's eighth. Steve Loree, a former member of the bands Deadbeat Backbone, Jr. Gone Wild, and Greyhound Tragedy, was enlisted to record and produce the album via his mobile studio Crabapple Downs.
