The main subject is a blurred image, possibly of a pair of hands at the face of a dog. Across the top is the group's name in large block capitals, mostly in yellow print. Below in smaller yellow block capitals is the ep's name. At the top right, over the last part of the title and below is a crayon-like red X.
