""They were kind of in their party phase stage of the band - as you probably should be - and so we went back to their their condo that they rented during the recording of this record, and there was this girl hanging out in the jacuzzi,""
""Few weeks later, I get a call from the label. 'Hey, come by and check this out. We want to show you something.' And the art director [Kevin Reagan], he was like, 'Well, what do you think?' I was like, 'Wow.' I was blown away. I was like, 'This is so cool looking. This looks... I love it' - of course, I'm going to say I love it. It's my photo - but I was just really... looking back, I was just really excited because it felt right after all the mockups and everything, this one looks incredible.""
Around the Fur features a provocative top-down fisheye image of a young woman in a jacuzzi used as the album cover. Photographer Rick Kosick was invited to shoot photos during the band's recording in Seattle with no pressure to create a cover image and was told to "go there and have fun, hang out, shoot photos." Kosick photographed a woman, Lisa Hughes, took only a couple of photos, and walked away. Weeks later the label selected one of those images for the sleeve. Lisa Hughes said she did not seek fame and disputed groupie rumors.
