Nine Inch Nails Plan Four Different Covers For Hesitation Marks
. All four mixed-media images (including actual blood on two of them) were created by artist Russell Mills, who's no stranger to making art for Nine Inch Nails, having crafted the cover art for the group's famed 1994 release, The Downward Spiral. Each piece is specific to a particular album format: "Turn and Burn" (digital), "Cargo in the Blood" (deluxe CD), "Time and Again" (standard CD) and "Other Murmurs" (vinyl). "The artworks, (30 mixed media pieces) that I eventually produced towards uses in the Hesitation Marks releases, evolved out of lengthy exchanges between myself and Trent and in response to the conceptual ideas that thread through the tracks and to the sonic territory that the album explores," Mills explained in a statement on the official Nine Inch Nails website. "I've tried to lock into the album's prevailing mood and echo the album's essence. The ideas are not communicated in a literal or easily digested form, as this would be boring for me and would insult the intelligence of a potential audience. I've tried to make works that obliquely allude to the essence of the subject matter, to its emotional core." Check out the artwork here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
