Whenever I hear someone talking about something that “goes hard”, my instinctive mental comparison is the opening track of this absolute fucking masterpiece of a record.

No worries mate… I’m on Jerboa that doesn’t really display the alt text, at least not in a way that is enough on the nose for me to just see it somewhere ;). I dig the album and really like the minimalism of the vinyl cover… just never saw it before, so I thought it just stood out how the title seems a bit shorter here.
This alternative cover is from the album’s first (i think only) LP release, printed by Vinyl Me, Please! around 2020. VMP did all of Fiona Apple’s stuff a while ago. No idea why they chose to change this artwork specifically when their Extraordinary Machine covers are just a pixelated upscale of the CD artwork. I’ve always assumed it was licensing rights
I’ve gotten a few Music On Vinyl records that really did a poor job on the album art, just like you describe.
