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.Did the last of the great American underground groups of the Eighties to bite the big-label bullet leave it too late? In an amusingly bare-faced attempt to find a mass audience for their unique brand of acid-fried, sludge-rocking Texan depravity, they have Led Zeppelin's John Paul Jones producing. But the Surfers' strength was always their fractured, stop-start craziness, best heard on early classics such as 'The Shah Sleeps in Lee Harvey's Grave'. Smooth them out and there's nothing left.
