Yes, you’re reading this correctly: the Avett Brothers have teamed with eclectic Faith No More/Mr. Bungle vocalist Mike Patton to form AVTT/PTTN, whose self-titled debut album will be released Nov. 14 through Thirty Tigers in association with Ramseur Records and Ipecac Recordings. “Mike’s part of our DNA, like the fabric of our youth,” says Scott Avett. They brought him out years and years later.”AVTT/PTTN was produced by Patton, Scott Avett and engineer Dana Nielsen. It runs the gamut from the Avett Brothers’ stripped-down folk/roots sound to something more propulsive and unusual, as heard on songs such as “Heaven’s Breath” and “The Ox Driver’s Song.” “This is what art is,” says Scott Avett.
