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.

Alex Turner and Miles Kane side project, The Last Shadow Puppets, have announced their new EP, The Dream Synopsis, featuring a newly recorded version of the album track of the same name.

The six-track extended play also includes four covers, “Is This What You Wanted” by Leonard Cohen which the band have released a video for.

All tracks were recorded live in a single day at Future-Past Studios, Hudson NY, with the various covers having been played live during their summer tour.

Despite having played David Bowie’s “Moonage Daydream” at Glastonbury Festival and on various other tour dates, the song remains noticeably absent from the EP.

There is currently no word on when the Arctic Monkeys will be working on their new record; they were rumoured to be in the studio earlier this year.

Tracklisting for The Dream Synopsis as follows:

1. Aviation

2. Les Cactus - original by Jacques Dutronc

3. Totally Wired – original by The Fall

4. This Is Your Life – original by Glaxo Babies

5. Is This What You Wanted – original by Leonard Cohen

6. The Dream Synopsis
