Any Trouble – Any Trouble
Any Trouble – Any Trouble
Released in 1983, Any Trouble is the self-titled fourth and final studio album from the acclaimed British band Any Trouble, showcasing their trademark blend of jangly guitars, sharp songwriting, and infectious power pop melodies. Led by the talented Clive Gregson, the album perfectly captures the intelligent, hook-filled sound that earned the band a devoted following, despite never achieving the commercial success their music deserved.
Emerging from the late 1970s pub rock and new wave scene, Any Trouble built a reputation for witty lyrics, polished musicianship, and melodic songwriting that drew comparisons with artists such as Elvis Costello, Nick Lowe, and Squeeze. By the time of this self-titled release, the band had refined their sound into a confident mix of guitar pop, new wave, and rock, producing an album filled with memorable choruses and timeless songwriting.
The album opens with the upbeat "I'll Be Your Man," before moving into the catchy "Please Don't Stop" and the energetic "Touch And Go." Other highlights include the melodic "Foundations," the driving "Party In The Streets," and the northern soul-inspired "Northern Soul." Side two continues with standout tracks such as "Man Of The Moment," the reflective "Time Does Not Heal," "You'd Better Go Home," and the heartfelt closer "Falling In Love With You Again." Throughout the record, Clive Gregson's songwriting shines, balancing clever lyricism with instantly memorable melodies.
An underrated gem of the British new wave era, Any Trouble is essential listening for fans of Elvis Costello, Squeeze, Joe Jackson, Nick Lowe, and Rockpile. Combining polished power pop, jangly guitars, and intelligent songwriting, it remains a rewarding addition to any new wave or classic guitar pop vinyl collection.
