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.Underworld's music for Danny Boyle's Frankenstein sounds like Throbbing Gristle doing the soundtrack to The Wicker Man – a fog of industrial noise punctuated by flamenco guitar flourishes and bursts of communal folk-singing.
The 17-minute "Overture" looms out of the murk, an evocative mix of ambient noise, droning synth textures and tolling bells through which snatches of other tracks are barely discernible. Individual tracks then deal with specific issues – "Creature Banished and Cottagers Burn", "Hide And Seek, Body In A Boat" – as required, the duo negotiating the various dynamic shifts and mood changes skillfully enough to pull off the difficult move from hissing, dripping and scraping noises to fiddly-diddly folk in "Industrial Revolution".
