Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.
The Posies
The Glitter Prize
Ken Stringfellow and Jon Auer were in Big Star with Alex Chilton until his death earlier this year and this melodic rock number is from 'Blood/Candy', the first Posies LP in nearly five years.
Museum of Bellas Artes
Watch the Glow
Sunny electro-pop with a wistful hue from the Stockholm trio, out this week.
Mumdance (ft Esser)
Battle
The London producer and Ben Esser bring their love of 2-step and UK garage together on a funky reworking of the Wookie classic.
Them: Youth
Toothache
Epic, synth-heavy electro powered by Eighties' melodies, Bloc Party guitars and an endless supply of hooks.
Warpaint
Undertow
Rumbling psych-rock on the first single from the LA quartet's anticipated debut LP 'The Fool'. Irresistible.
Brother
Darling Buds of May
This track was the highlight of the soon-to-be-massive Brit-Pop revivalists' first-ever London gig at the Flowerpot.
Chapel Club
All The Eastern Girls
Chapel Club take the grit of East London's mid-noughties heyday and lace it with squelchy keyboards and drum'n'bass beats.
Pulp
Sunrise
For no particular reason we've been revisiting Pulp's final LP, 'We Love Life' this week. 'Sunrise' is the storming closing track from a thoroughly underrated record.
