Better Late Than Never is the debut full-length album by the ska/reggae band The Slackers, originally released in 1996 (see 1996 in music) on Moon Ska Records. It was later remastered and re-released with three additional tracks from the original recording sessions on March 19, 2002 (see 2002 in music) on Special Potato Records.

The album was a notable debut for the band, paving the way for their eventual signing to Hell-Cat Records. It was also a significant departure from the Two Tone and garage rock influences of the band's early days, instead opting for a sound akin to the traditional ska acts of 1960s Jamaica. The album was produced by noted ska/reggae producer Victor Rice, who later collaborated with members of the band on projects by the Stubborn All-Stars and the Version City Rockers.
