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.Following a secret performance at Barcelona’s Primavera Sound festival, Arcade Fire has announced their new album, Everything Now.
The band also released the titular track, accompanied by music video, marking their first release under the ‘global media and e-commerce platform’ Everything Now.
The single was produced by Arcade Fire, as well as Daft Punk’s Thomas Bangalter and Pulp’s Steve Mackey. Fans have already pointed to similarities between the single and ABBA’s ‘Dancing Queen’, mainly thanks to the disco drums and piano chords.
The album touches down 28 July and will be available in multiple physical formats; CD, cassette, and heavyweight black vinyl LP.
Notably, there will be 20 different artwork variants, each bearing the album title in one of 20 different languages, along with a limited exclusive ‘Night’ packaging.
Arcade Fire has also announced six UK dates, including shows in London, Manchester, and Scunthorpe. See below.
