Date single boy from San Diego, United States. Anything was The Damned's seventh studio album, released in 1986.
Between July and August 1985 the band and producer Jon Kelly decamped to Puk Recording Studios in Gjerlev, Denmark to record their follow-up. In contrast to the straightforward sessions for their previous album, recording was rife with problems. Kelly attempted to steer the band towards the 'Goth Opera' style that had served them so well, but the band wanted to move in a new direction, with a psychedelic rock flavour – epitomised by their cover of Love’s "Alone Again Or".
The album received lackluster reviews, and, considering the expenditure involved, was a commercial flop, peaking at #40 on the UK charts and spending just two weeks in the Top 100. It would lead to the band’s contract with MCA being terminated, and would be the band’s last album for a decade.
The distinctive carving on the cover was made by Howard Rayhoult. On some pressings of the vinyl release this was unpainted, while some were coloured by Jef Hartley and Booce. The CD version of the album uses the coloured cover.
Anything spawned the UK hit singles "Anything" (#32), "Gigolo" (#29) and "Alone Again Or" (#27).
It was re-released on CD in 2009, and contained many extra tracks of remixes and live performances.

Meet people from San Diego, United States. Hey I'm Mike. I'm born and raised San Diegan, and am a freshmen at Grossmont studying theater, and business administration. But I am far from your quiet and boring kinda guy. I love laughing, and making other people laugh hard. I am an actor by night, and a student by day, but I have tons of downtime in my schedule where I am playing jokes, acting a little silly, and acting like me. I am a little shy at first, but I am quite fun and enjoyable after the first few chats. I am also a Christian, and love my God and family so much!
Honestly, I'm looking for someone who is comfortable with who they are. Nothing turns me off more then lack of self confidence. Also someone who I can laugh with till our sides hurt, then laugh some more. Someone who doesn't only want to get to know me because of my job. Like me for me, and not me for my shows. And most important for me, feel free to let loose, and be yourself, and have fun! Also I am willing to talk about anything. If it's serious I wont judge, and if it's funny I'll laugh with you.
I hope this helped you get to know me a little, and I hope to get to learn some about you too! Hope we can chat sometime!
