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.Cosy and reassuring as a crackling log fire, the Clientele's sixth album is as redolent of autumn/ winter in London as its title suggests.
Still in thrall to reverb-heavy guitars, whispered vocals and the odd gently psychedelic flourish, the band have honed their sound to the point that you can now spot a Clientele song from its opening four bars. Too subtle to trouble the mainstream, each new Clientele release further suggests there is a masterpiece up their sleeve. And while this isn't it, it has moments of majesty, mystery and magic.
