"AVTT/PTTN, the collaborative project between the folk-rock band The Avett Brothers and legendary rock singer Mike Patton (Faith No More, Mr. Bungle), performed their song “Disappearing” on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Wednesday night. The performance comes in the midst of the group's US tour ( get tickets here), which runs through a June 20th show in Waukegan, Illinois."
"While certain songs on their debut record such as debut single “Eternal Love” show elements of the accessible arthouse moves of Faith No More intermixed with the Avett Brothers' typical country-folk, “Disappearing” is a more straight-ahead number, seeing Patton instead melding into the brothers' established sound. That Patton is able to do so in such a seamless way in performances such as this is testament to his placement in the Top 10 of Consequence's 100 Best Vocalists of All Time list."
"Patton brings with him on “Disappearing” an edge of lyrical darkness and complexity, with hints at the more morally murky character of the narrator, differentiating it from similar songs about simple longing. The band plays it straight however, with none of their body language signifying this darker turn. It's a subtle performance, like much of their debut, signaling both the cold cynicism of so much of that musical world while simultaneously being comfortable in warmth itself."
"AVTT/PTTN are currently supporting their self-titled debut album, which arrived in November of last year. Watch the performance of “Disappearing” on Jimmy Kimmel Live below."
