The upcoming album 'AVTT/PTTN,' set for release on November 14, 2025, features a bold fusion of folk, rock, and experimental sounds, highlighted by the heavy, fuzzy track 'Heaven's Breath,' which marks a departure into more intense sonic territory.

Produced by Mike Patton, Scott Avett, Seth Avett, and Grammy-winning engineer Dana Nielsen, the album reflects a collaborative process where songs were initially sketched by Scott, reshaped by Patton, and reimagined with Seth, resulting in a distinct and adventurous sound.

The album includes eight original songs co-written by Patton and the Avett Brothers, along with one traditional folk piece, showcasing a blend of genres and innovative songwriting.

The single 'Heaven's Breath' serves as a fiery, intense preview of the album, with a heavier, fuzz-heavy sound reminiscent of Mr. Bungle's style, and features Patton's dynamic vocals blending with the Avett Brothers' harmonies.

This track is the album's most explosive preview, emphasizing a fusion of folk, rock, and experimental elements, and marking the beginning of their sonic exploration with adventurous fuzz and Patton’s versatile vocals.

The album's final advance single, 'Heaven's Breath,' contrasts with the folk-style lead single 'Eternal Love,' and has been compared to Mr. Bungle's 'Retrovertigo' for its heavier, gritty sound.

The album opens with 'Dark Night of My Soul,' featuring Patton's vocals blending with the Avett Brothers' harmonies, and includes tracks like 'The Ox Driver's Song' and 'Heaven's Breath,' showcasing a varied sonic landscape.

Scott Avett describes Mike Patton as a significant influence, recalling their shared history and calling the collaboration a full-circle moment that pushes genre boundaries and artistic limits.

The project exemplifies a genre-blending experiment that surprises fans and critics, emphasizing unbounded creativity and a collision of musical worlds.

The music video for 'Heaven's Breath' was produced and directed by Neighborhoods Apart, adding a visual dimension to this experimental release.

Mike Patton will tour Latin America in January 2026 with his band Mr. Bungle, performing alongside Avenged Sevenfold, while Faith No More remains inactive.

The album will be available through Thirty Tigers, Ipecac Recordings, and Ramseur Records, with a limited-edition vinyl version available for pre-order.
