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.

Recorded live at the Roundhouse last year, it features former Throbbing Gristle duo Chris & Cosey in collaboration with Factory Floor guitarist Nik Void, on a series of semi-improvised pieces titled simply "v.1" to "v.4". "v.1" is typical: a steady pulse allied to a constant nagging buzz-whine, over which are scattered sundry shards and scribbles of abstract guitar noise. After a while, it develops its own satisfying logic, akin to watching the world slip by through a train window: always much the same, always different. The format sustains on subsequent tracks; but despite its apparent concreteness, the music is surprisingly warm.
