Formed in 2010 as Brother Bear, the band currently consists of Jonny Andrew, Michael Weldon & Jared Wallace. State Faults have primarily been categorized as screamo and post-hardcore; possessing elements of black metal, post-rock, shoegaze, noise rock, mathcore and heavy psych. Their music often makes heavy usage of dynamics, by incorporating both ambient and cacophonous passages. Their softer sections are often utilized through the usage of reverb effects, ambient synths and occasionally spoken word. Dan Ozzi, a writer at Noisey, described their music as "what a panic attack sounds like". Sometime tracks such as Wildfires incorporate melody and hooks into unclean vocals. Lyrically, their music generally focuses on spirituality, makes use of references to the occult and is heavily emotional. A number of the tracks on their debut album were based on anxiety and its repercussions. In an article for No Echo, Adam Yoe described their lyrics as "meditation on trauma and healing".

On 8 May 2012, they released their debut album Desolate Peaks through Tiny Engine Records. On 12 November 2013, they released their sophomore album Resonate/Desperate through No Sleep Records. In 2015, Chip Kelley departed from the band, at the same time as Chris Hansen from No Sleep Records was pushing the band the put a new record. This led to the three remaining members deciding to officially break-up and work on a separate musical project, which would turn out to be noise rock band Slow Bloom. In 2019, Andrew, Weldon and Wallace reformed State Faults, due to increased interest by fans and began recording material. Their first performance after reforming was at Santa Rosa's Chop Shop on 18 February, with support from Outlier, Sloth & Turtle and Pushing It. Their third album Clairvoyant was released on 21 June 2019. In December 2019, Brooklyn Vegan placed Resonate/Desperate at number 95 on their top 100 punk rock and emo albums of the 2010s. In addition to this, Chris Luedtke of Metal Injection included the album as an "Honourable Mention" in his list of the greatest albums of 2019.
