The vinyl editions have two different covers than the CD edition, and either one is arguably less visually garish than the computer generated art on the CD edition. The original vinyl cover showed the band dressed as penguins and standing on an iceberg, while the newer vinyl edition is a photograph of a wooden carving of a toy captain commanding his toy ship.
