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.Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, and Anthrax - the leaders of the thrash metal movement - are set to share the stage this summer for the first time as part of the Sonisphere touring festival. Announced June 9, the bands' June 22 show from Sofia, Bulgaria, will be broadcast via satellite to movie theaters around the world.
The Sonisphere tour will mark the first time in history the "Big Four" of thrash metal have shared a concert bill. Beyond a limited European concert schedule - 11 dates total from June 16 through August 8 - no additional concerts are planned for the Sonisphere tour, meaning the history-making broadcast event is likely to be one-of-a-kind.
The June 22 concert will be broadcast to hundreds of movie theaters in more than 30 countries on several continents.
