Thanks to BlackBook Magazine we have this diary of a show of Dead Man’s Bones.
For copyright issues I will post a excerpt and post you the link for you to read it there;

I would only allow a picture to be taken of me if I could do 15 push-ups right before. Unfortunately, I can only do 30 push-ups each day, so there are only two pictures of me. Also, all this paint was seeping through the canvas onto the floor. We had to paint the whole floor black again before we left. Also, our friend who owned this space was pissed. Also, we’re never allowed to darken the doors here again. —Ryan

This is a portrait of two guys who have no idea what they are doing. Good thing a bunch of our friends were there to help. We spent two weekends painting through the night with them. When we finished the set, we cut out the sky and a friend sewed a bunch of Christmas lights into a sheet to make stars. After we used it at the Bob Baker shows, we took it on the road with us.

I find this short of a review of Dead Man’s Bones:

“Based on the mysteriously intriguing cover, the complete lack of credits and the bizarre and murky sounds within, it is nearly impossible to discern that Dead Man’s Bones is the work of Oscar-nominated actor Ryan Gosling — but it is. The cover photo depicts a group shot of the Silverlake Conservatory of Music Childrens’ Choir in Halloween costumes, with Gosling and his best friend Zach Shields obscurely placed on either side.

The self-titled release is a loose concept album and theatre project based on supernatural themes. With the lo-fi production, the eerie childrens’ choir and song titles like “Werewolf Heart” and “Flowers Grow Out of My Grave,” Dead Man’s Bones manages to consistently bind the entire strange project together. Gosling and Shield’s muddled voices maintain a spooky atmosphere in the many slower numbers. However, brilliant upbeat flashes like “My Body’s A Zombie For You” come out of nowhere and feature the childrens’ choir sounding like the Arcade Fire singing doo-wop on Halloween night. The spotlight tends to focus on the aforementioned choir, with Gosling and Shields sitting back and directing the whole project. It shouldn’t work — but it does and is executed wonderfully.

This album should be sought out and heard simply because there is nothing out there today that sounds remotely like it.”

We have been severely influenced by the works of Jan Michael Vincent and early Jean Paul Sartre and I guess this our way of saying “thank-you” to all those who stood for something real and several things unreal. For all the Lou Diamond Phillips of the world who can step out in faith and say “please show my date the way out, quick”! This is for you.

The first review of “Dead Man’s Bones” is out and it’s good! “One might expect an actor’s foray into music to be littered with mistakes and miscues, but Gosling is able to craft a masterful album with the great help of [Zach] Shields and the Silverlake Conservatory Children’s Choir. The unique album will find company in similar side-projects like She & Him rather than The Bacon Brothers.” You can read the full review here.
