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.Though many tracks are co-written with Alex Turner, Miles Kane's solo debut bears scant comparison to the duo's more grandiose work as The Last Shadow Puppets.
It's still suffused with a retro 1960s vibe, but this time the garage-pop influences prevail, with a sizeable side-order of psychedelia courtesy of the edgy West Coast lead guitar that streaks tracks such as "Happenstance" and the first single "Inhaler". Its successor "Rearrange" is the most powerful piece here, with the spooky feedback whine intro leading into the album's most adhesive hook. Elsewhere, the rolling tribal tom-tom groove of "Kingcrawler" recalls The Coral and "Telepathy" has a Hawley-esque twangsome manner to it; but "Better Left Invisible" is just too brazen an appropriation, of positively Oasean proportions, of the "Cold Turkey" riff.
