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.Drummers' solo albums. Hmmm.
Except Selway is the Ringo of Radiohead and, while his first outing in his own right contains no alarm, it's fair to say it has plenty of surprises. The lack of alarm is due to the gentle, thoughtful, folky flavour.
And the surprises are provided by a better than you'd expect singing voice, a personal way with a lyric entirely lacking from his day-job project and a couple of stand-out tunes any singer-songwriter would be proud of. More of those and there'd be little need for either Thom or tom-toms.
