===Final lineups (2014–2018)=== Between lineups, Cruzar issued "I Wanna Be an East Indian" as a download single. Chinn and returning bassist Bacon assembled a new incarnation in February with guitarists [[Kurt Robertson]] (of [[The Real McKenzies]]) and [[Randy Steffes]] (a former sound engineer and road manager for SNFU, The Real McKenzies, and Green Day), and drummer [[Adrian White (musician)|Adrian White]] (of [[Strapping Young Lad]] and [[Front Line Assembly]]). Beginning in April, the band played in Europe, Canada, and made their first United States appearances since 2001. They returned to Europe in July with British drummer Jamie Oliver (of the [[U.K. Subs]]). Guest drummer Txutxo Krueger (of [[Total Chaos]]) also filled in for several dates. They planned further Canadian touring for November, which would include returning Creager and Simm, but ultimately canceled the tour.<ref>Walter, Chris, ''Around the World with Mr. Chi Pig'', Vancouver: GFY Press, 2023, pg. 132</ref> With Bacon and Oliver, their 2015 Canadian performances included ''...And No One Else Wanted to Play'' in its entirety to commemorate its 30th anniversary. They also performed in Australia and New Zealand for the first time since 1997. Basque drummer Batikão Est (of Estricalla) began playing with the group in 2016, including Canadian and European touring.<ref>Walter 2023: 135</ref> Marc Belke reworked two demo tracks from 2000 and released them as SNFU's "A Happy Number" single on Rake Records in November 2017. The songs were far more experimental than anything else in the band's catalog and featured heavy use of electronic musical elements. Writing for PunkNews.org, reviewer Jefftommy called the "odd duck of a record" a "pretty little song by a hardcore band of yore" and recommended the record for the band's fans;<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.punknews.org/review/15482/snfu-a-happy-number-7-inch|title="SNFU: A Happy Number"|website=PunkNews.org|date=January 2, 2018|access-date=August 21, 2020}}</ref> [[Razorcake]] critic Ty Stranglehold praised the "hauntingly strange little ditties with keyboards and a drum machine" and the band's experimentation.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://razorcake.org/snfu-happy-number-7/|title="SNFU: A Happy Number"|website=[[Razorcake]]|first=Ty|last=Stranglehold|date=January 31, 2018|access-date=August 21, 2020}}</ref> The group's final live appearances were in early 2018.
