Benson Boone reviews are in: Critics flip off ‘American Heart’
Image
Benson Boone scored one of 2024's most undeniable hits with "Beautiful Things," but 2025 brings the backflipping belter's sophomore album, American Heart. And to say that critics are not head over heels for the record would be putting it lightly.

Currently sitting at a 43 on Metacritic, American Heart is being knocked as lacking specificity or the kind of edge present in Boone's many apparent influences.

"So I don’t fault the wholesome pop star son of Mormon parents for not writing songs about the rot at the heart of America, or for not biting the heads off bats on stage," Pitchfork's Jeremy D. Larson writes. "But it’s really hard to consider a teetotaling showman with a voice straight out of The Voice and not think: What makes any of this actually special? Sure, he can sing, but there’s very little flair, camp, sass, or insouciance to his voice...

Tyler Glenn Shares New Excommunication Track “Gates”
The world may be missing Neon Trees a bit, but frontman Tyler Glenn is trying to remedy the pain by releasing solo material of his own. While Glenn’s vocals are undeniably Neon Trees-esque, the music he’s singing along to is far more interesting and more inventive than anything we’ve seen from his band in quite a while. His upcoming album, Excommunication, shows another side of his musical talent, and it’s a sound that isn’t hard to get used to listening to on a regular basis.

With his newly released song, “Gates,” Glenn turns down the tempo compared to previous tracks like “Trash” or the disco-anthem, “G.D.M.M.L. Grls.” “Gates” is a slow burn pop song that shines more in its verses than it does in its chorus, which is unlike what we usually see from him.

In terms of lasting value,...

Tyler Glenn Releases New Song From Solo Album
With each song that Tyler Glenn releases from his upcoming solo album, it’s getting harder and harder to really miss music from Neon Trees. The Neon Trees vocalist is doing something much different – and arguably better – with his solo career, and he just released another new song that shows how serious he’s taking the new venture.

Glenn will be dropping his debut solo album, Excommunication, on October 21st, and the songs that have been released thus far pretty much sound like Neon Trees juiced up with steroids. Today’s song, “G.D.M.M.L Grls,” which stands for “God didn’t make me like girls,” is an upbeat dance number backed by a powerful message – 80’s-influenced drums and guitar tones loom in background as Glenn sings about being gay growing up in the church. Overall, it’s remarkably candid and unapologetic – but that’s always been Glenn’s personality from the start,...

Logo’s Inaugural “Trailblazers” Special Announced
On Thursday, June 26, Logo will honor those groundbreaking advocates who have helped the Lgbt community make incredible strides this year with the network’s first-ever Trailblazers special. The inaugural event will honor Edie Windsor and Roberta Kaplan, plaintiff and attorney in the landmark Supreme Court case that finally brought federal recognition of gay marriages.

Windsor lost her wife, Thea Spyer, in 2009 and because of the federal “Defense of Marriage Act” (Doma) the couple wasn’t recognized as married by the federal government. Thus, Windsor would have been required to pay more than $360,000 in estate taxes– a potential injustice affecting all Lgbt domestic partners thanks to Doma. To fight this injustice, Windsor filed suit in Windsor v. United States. Attorney Roberta Kaplan and her firm Paul Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison to the case Pro Bono.

Neon Trees
Los Angeles - Neon Trees' new album "Pop Psychology" drops today, and just a month ago, frontman Tyler Glenn came out as gay. According to Glenn, fans are going to hear a lot of intersection of the latter in the former. Speaking to me from the red carpet at the MTV Movie Awards this month, Glenn said that a lot of lyrics from "Pop Psychology" came from "therapy sessions... it feels very cathartic." His advice to those who are closeted is that "it's Ok to be scared" though "it's the best thing I've done in a long time." "I know how it feels," Glenn continued. "Tweet me if you need a friend."

Neon Trees’ Tyler Glenn: I’m Gay
His flamboyant stage antics and in-your-face fashion sense has set him apart in the pop music world, and now Tyler Glenn has a big revelation.

The Neon Trees frontman told Rolling Stone magazine that despite his conservative Mormon upbringing, he’s known he was gay since he was six years old.

Glenn explained, "I don't know what the rumors are, but we're not taught that 'homos are going to hell' on Sunday in church. Mostly it's just about Christ and his teachings."

And while he’s unapologetic about his sexual orientation, Tyler is a bit concerned that his hometown fans in Provo, Utah will be upset about his revelation- "I hope they don't feel like we're pulling the rug out from under them.”

After high school, Glenn actually went on a 2-year Mormon mission to strengthen his faith. "I was like, 'I'm 18, I'm either going to go to college, which...
