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.

Either no longer attracting or no longer asking the major names (Ashcroft, Yorke, Cocker, etc) who have guest-vocalled in the past, James Lavelle's fifth UNKLE album is, conversely, his strongest release since Psyence Fiction in 1998.

Using synths and "proper" musicians to provide backing for singers (Mark Lanegan excluded) no one's ever heard of, WDTNF is at times almost commercial. It still feels a bit like music for people who prefer to talk about music than listen to it, but you can't have everything.
