In an early 2007 interview with Metal-Rules.com, TROUBLE guitarist Rick Wartell explained the reasons for the delay in getting the band's last studio album, "Simple Mind Condition", recorded and released.
"The record has been recorded for over a year now," he said at the time. "There were just so many loose ends that needed to be tied up with the business of TROUBLE because we were still under contract with Century Media. There were a lot of legal matters involved with getting TROUBLE back together as a corporation. It looks money, time, lawyers and a pain in the ass to get this thing back together. Now all of that is behind us but unfortunately we sat there waiting just as long as the fans did for this thing to get released. We couldn't release anything until all the finances were in place, the producer was paid, the mastering was done and a lot of things had to be taken care of. We were frustrated just as the fans were, we sat there waiting at home wondering when this thing was gonna get done. And finally it all came together, everything.
With regards to the band's future plans and the possibility of another studio CD, Wartell said, "We have no plans of doing another TROUBLE album . . . this is it. What we decide later, we decide later, but right now there are no plans."
