Mike Patton (Faith No More, Tomahawk, Mr. Bungle) has been selected by writer/director Derek Cianfrance (Blue Valentine) to provide the score for The Place Beyond the Pines, which stars Ryan Gosling, Bradley Cooper and Eva Mendes.

Mike Patton, who rose to prominence as a teenager as the front man for Faith No More and is known as one of music's most eclectic musicians, has done a series of scores over the past few years including the Italian drama The Solitude of Prime Numbers, Crank High Voltage and the short film A Perfect Place.

Patton is also currently working on a new Tomahawk album with a projected late summer release date.
