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.As Aggy returns to the diva fray, naysayers are suggesting that a certain other Warhol-loving exhibitionist has rendered her passé.
That’s gaga, frankly. With typical restraint, Bionic corrals collaborators from Le Tigre to Linda Perry into an 18-track opus featuring chunky urban electro, gusty power balladry, lilting jazz-pop and bubblegum dance-punk. It’s overlong, narcissistic, often lyrically risible, and yet – potential hit for potential hit and commanding vocal for commanding vocal – nigh on irresistible.
