Grief and clarity in the same story
In the supplied announcement, Bochner connects the breakup with coming to understand her queer identity. The record examines the friction between grief, guilt, joy and the beginning of acceptance.
“Fault Line” addresses the temptation to reduce a difficult relationship ending to a simple story of personal blame. The album’s wider perspective makes room for the ambiguity that such a story leaves out.
