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.

Somehow, Björn Tagemos - a Swedish visual artist - has managed to assemble one of the greatest line-ups of rock stars ever, and has cast them in a silent film.

Iggy Pop, Lemmy, Slash, Grace Jones, Henry Rollins, Josh Homme, Mark Lenegan, Eagles of Death Metal’s Jesse Hughes, Slayer’s Tom Araya, Justice, Nina Hagen and Volbeat have gathered to star in the bombastic production which will tour the world with a live band.

Called Gutterdämmerung: The Loudest Silent Film on Earth, the plot will revolve around a satanic guitar and Pop’s fallen angel. Watch the trailer below.

The casting for the film has been announced via Facebook, each one accompanied by small descriptions of their character.

Slash’s character apparently starts the quest for the Phallic tool of eternal torment. Wandering through our tale like a thief in the night and with the swagger of a true Rock and Roll Phantomas.”

Josh Homme, meanwhile will bring “death to life, armed with his bazooka poetically known as ‘Death’s Dominion’.” Check out the page here.

The “loud and dark fairy tale” will tour with an accompanying rock band from late this year to early next.
