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.Black City is the fifth album in seven years from electronic pop maestro Matthew Dear (under his own name at least – he also aliases as Jabberjaw, Audion and False).
It continues his trick of applying left-field lyrics and an indie sensibility to techno-house musical methods. This time around there's a muffled, nocturnal feel, pitched somewhere between a white-boy Tricky and Chromeo on downers, and just when you're drifting off, an ear-catching line such as "I am a monkey, frozen in my monkey tree" jolts you awake.
