Troubleman Unlimited Records is a record label specializing in indie rock and similar genres. Founded in 1993, the label is based in Bayonne, New Jersey and owned by Mike Simonetti.

The label started as an offshoot of a fanzine called "Wanna Communicate?", releasing 7" singles. The label has grown significantly in the 2000s, releasing full-length albums by many groups who are regularly reviewed in media outlets like "Spin" and Pitchfork Media. The label focuses on noise rock, including releases from Black Dice, Wolf Eyes and Hair Police. Troubleman Unlimited was named "Best Label" by "New York Magazine" in 2005.

Simonetti has also recently started a dance label, Italians Do It Better, with Johnny Jewel of Glass Candy. [T. Cole Rachel, "Welcome to the Good Life", "The Fader" no. 53, April 2008, p. 74.] The name is taken from the slogan emblazoned on Madonna's t-shirt in her "Papa Don't Preach" video.
