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.

Since 2009's superb Fits, they've mutated from math-rock psychedelic blues-jammers to something closer to a cross between the Grateful Dead and the Magic Band, mingling spiky trickster rhythms with sleek country-rock harmonies and serpentine guitar breaks, with a side-order of Afro-Cuban jazz flute thrown in on "A River to Consider". As James Petralli sings on the closing "Keys", a jaunty blend of strings and country picking, "I got a number of keys/ No doors to unlock". That's very much the feeling throughout D, whether they're negotiating the skittery syncopated rhythms of the psych-jazz groove "Anvil Everything" or braiding skeins of pirouetting guitars and falsetto harmonies while segueing Dead-style between "Burnished" and "At The Farm". Is there nothing they can't do?
