No Time for Later is the third full-length album by Canadian rock band The Trews. It was released February 19, 2008 on Bumstead Records. It was recorded in 2007, and produced by Gus Van Go and Werner F. The first single, "Hold Me in Your Arms" was released on November 25, 2007.
Following the release of Den of Thieves, the members of the band started work on No Time for Later and brought in two new producers: Gus Van Go and Werner F. The group rehearsed for several months and narrowed a group of over 30 songs to the thirteen that made the final album. A song called "Long Way from Freedom" was also recorded for the album, but was not included. It was later added to The Trews' website as a free download. The album was recorded in mid-2007 in Toronto and Brooklyn.
Singer Simon Wilcox helped write the title track. According to John-Angus MacDonald, the title came from a discussion between Wilcox and lead singer Colin MacDonald. Colin said "there's no time for later, we'll finish the song" and Wilcox, not realizing that Colin wasn't referring to a song, responded with "No, let's work on that song." Following the discussion, MacDonald quickly wrote a verse and chorus in about five minutes.
The song "Gun Control" was written following the Virginia Tech massacre on April 16, 2007. John-Angus MacDonald said "We were sitting around the apartment and watching all the coverage from CNN and Fox, it just seemed so blatantly obvious they were beating around the bush. The problem was how did this kid have a gun in the first place? It's a personal and political view from us."
The first single, "Hold Me in Your Arms", was released on November 25, 2007. It premiered at the 2007 Grey Cup pre-game show and was immediately released on iTunes. The music video premiered on January 9, 2008. The second single, "Paranoid Freak", was released April 2008. It has quickly gained radio-play in Canada. The third single was "Man of Two Minds" released September 2008.
