Billie Marten, Dog Eared

The British indie-folk songwriter’s fifth album is aided by a full-band even in its most personal moments, as Marten reflects on indelible scenes from childhood as seen through adult eyes.

Flooding, Object 1

The Kansas City trio ushers in a new kind of tenderness with an EP running the gamut from slowcore to screamo, one that’s vulnerable and violent and completely captivating.

Clipse, Let God Sort Em Out

Paired with familiar high-gloss minimalism courtesy of producer Pharrell Williams, Pusha T and Malice’s first album in 16 years stands up fairly well as an assured re-up of their rap powers.

The Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) has announced the return of SEMA Fest for Friday, November 7 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Queens of the Stone Age, The Black Crowes, and Neon Trees are set to headline the music portion of the event that caps off the week-long SEMA Show on the convention center campus’ Bronze lot. The broader event kicks off on November 4.

Additionally, SEMA Fest 2025 promises automotive action with live motorsports demonstrations including drifting exhibitions, high-speed precision driving, and high-horsepower showcases. Tickets go on sale this Friday at 10 a.m. PT, with early bird pre-sale tickets going live tomorrow at the event’s website.
