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.

In the week someone said that Rocket From The Crypt were the past, present and future of rock 'n' roll...

RACKET FROM THE CRYPT

USA are striking back...

Never even heard a track

Must be good

Can't be bad

Rock reviewers

Going mad.

Apparently.

Said so in NME.

In yer face. The latest choice.

Hard to bear the singer's voice

Rock and roll.

Message blurred.

Never heard

A single word

I wouldn't know.

Might be Sigue Sigue Sputnik though

Retro-punk. Could be cash.

Spinal Tap meets early Clash

Back to roots.

There you go.

Friend of critic's

Told me so

He saw the show

Just them and the LSO.

In a rut? Take a risk

Rush out and buy the latest disc

Absolutely

Not a fad.

Whither Britpop?

Ask your dad.

Rabble rousers,

Now go out and buy the trousers.
