The track opens with an excellent acoustic motif that immediately draws you in, setting a stripped-down, intimate tone that puts Kotler’s vocals front and center. Her voice is rich with emotion, showcasing a range and dynamism that few artists her age can pull off. The lyrics hit hard, capturing the moment when you realize a relationship is crumbling, yet you’re paralyzed by fear and uncertainty—a sentiment that will resonate with anyone who’s ever felt stuck in a love gone wrong.

"fault line" isn’t just a breakup song; it’s a clever fusion of heartbreak and pop sensibility. Kotler’s knack for writing songs that sound happy, even when they’re laced with sadness, shines through here. The production is slick and polished, with atmospheric effects and subtle backing vocals that add depth without overshadowing the raw emotion at the song’s core.

This track offers a perfect dose of modern pop with heart and soul. It’s relatable, catchy, and deeply authentic—everything a great pop song should be. With "fault line," Avery Kotler cements herself as a promising emerging artist who’s only just beginning to tap into her potential. This is a song you’ll want to keep on repeat, not just for the catchy melody, but for the way it makes you feel seen and understood.

It’s almost as if you’re in the room with her as she professes her soul in an artistic setting. The warmth and raw feeling alone emanating from her vocals are worth giving this a listen. Even with a backing instrumental that more than makes things interesting, it’s a vocal-forward track with a story worth breaking down and absorbing. Truthfully, we love everything about it, and as only her third released track, she’s well on her way of building an impressive discography.
