Transcription
Album cover
The album cover features the famous photograph The Last Jew in Vinnitsa. In an interview with the Songfacts site in 2015, Miret explained, "It was a pretty intense photo. But that was the purpose of it. I wanted people to see that and know that that did happen, and it can happen again. And that intense view, that guy just looking at the camera right about the moment he was about to fall into that pit, it was intense. But I just felt that it was appropriate. That person probably never did anything wrong in his life. That was the way it is. That was sad. But we see it happening all over again, don't we?"[1]
