"Anything Goes" is one of the four singles AC/DC pulled from Black Ice, the 2008 album that brought the band's first new music since Stiff Upper Lip in 2000. Angus and Malcolm Young wrote it, Brian Johnson sings it, and Cliff Williams on bass and Phil Rudd on drums hold down the bottom while the brothers work the guitars.

Brendan O'Brien produced, with Mike Fraser engineering and mixing, and O'Brien's aim for the whole record was to chase the punch of the band's early records rather than the bluesier lean of the last one. The songs were mostly cut live at the Warehouse Studio in Vancouver in March and April 2008, Fraser keeping overdubs and effects sparse. It also counts among Malcolm Young's last recordings with the band: Black Ice was his final studio album before he left in 2014 after a dementia diagnosis.
