Gig of the week: The Knife, Roundhouse, London NW1
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.If deconstructing dance-pop sounds like a dry approach to good-time music, fear not: the Knife engage body and brain on their new album, Shaking the Habitual.
Epic drones and noises of dubious provenance are pleasingly off-piste features of the Swedish duo's return, but so are priapic imprecations, polyrhythmic pile-drivers and febrile scratching.
If an inability to toe anything like a predictable line keeps the results thrilling, the live show aims for the same: featuring "danceoke" and "absurdist aerobics", it could be the only post-everything art-pop extravaganza you can get your rocks off to in town.
