Their first since the departure of co-founder Roger Miller, Faultline is a transitional work for the band. Miller was replaced by saxophonist Steve Adams, who soon departed to join the saxophone quartet ROVA and was in turn replaced by Ken Field. Both Adams and Field recorded material for Faultline. The introduction of a saxophonist also tilted the band slightly towards jazz.
