So, Here's A Video Of Ryan Gosling's Band

Feb. 6, 2012
I am Brandon Scott Gorrell and I am pumped!!!

Ryan Gosling has a band called Dead Man’s Bones, a lighthearted, macabre-inspired rock-ish choral venture that seems to have toured at one point and I think has an album. I can’t tell, the website’s hard to figure out and I have deadlines to fill. This is probably old news to some of you. It definitely is, actually; Pitchfork even covered it in 2009, before Gosling mania took hold of the hysterical masses. But I just now found this out and so was immediately compelled to share this exciting situation with like-minded Ryan Gosling admirers who might not have been aware.

What’s sort of confusing is that this video is four years old, and it doesn’t yet have even a million pageviews. That doesn’t make sense to me. Why has a video of hunky ass Gosling looking extremely doable, sonically caressing us with his velvety voice and being all adorable and stuff not gone bigtime viral? I mean, it does have 900k views, which is impressive, don’t get me wrong, but I figured it would’ve just destroyed the internet by now.

…Anyways. Please enjoy his performance below, and here’s the band’s YouTube channel if you’re interested in getting into a Ryan Gosling k-hole. TC mark

    I found this last month and it transformed me from a casual enjoyer of Ryan Gosling’s attractiveness to a full-on obsessive fangirl. 
    I’m wondering it maybe his music is a bit too weird to catch on on a wider scale but I love it.

      yes! they need to start playing again.

  • SS

    I saw them live in Toronto back in 2009, no big deal or anything. 

  • Mademoiselle

    Erm, hi, and welcome to 2009 or  something. WTH?
    Anyway, it rocks.

      the entire first paragraph apologizes almost excessively for this being old news to some in an effort to avoid condescending comments like yours; i’m somewhat dismayed by my failure.

      • Mademoiselle

        Well I apologize, it really was exceedingly talked about at the time hence my lack of tact. To be frank maybe it came out of disappointment because for a second there I thought “omg they have release new stuff”, but no. *shrugs*

      • Kim

        This was news to me and a co-worker I forwarded the article to so I guess we’re stuck back in 2009 also.

    are you seriously saying you did not know about Dead Mans Bones?

  • Jdub90

    I was about to say something snarky like “maybe it doesn’t have more views cause it’s not that good”, then I realized my foot was tapping incessantly and I was still watching it….

  • Jennifer

    I wish I could figure out their website to buy the album.

  • caitlin

    I oddly enough had this album years ago but STILL had never seen this video until now. Thanks!
