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.There's a danger of art-rock overload in this alliance of two cerebral music talents, but Love This Giant succeeds remarkably well, partly due to the strategy of using punchy, New Orleans-style brass arrangements as the lead instrument.
The brass's warmth helps thaw the duo's more icily artful tendencies, whether through infectious ebullience – as on the charming "The One Who Broke Your Heart" – or subtler tonalities on "Ice Age". Best of all is "I Am An Ape", Byrne's comment on the primacy of primates, where woodwind and brass are tinged with a tango dynamic.
