The album artwork by Todd Sullivan features Patrick Wilson, Rivers Cuomo, Matt Sharp, and Brian Bell standing left to right in front of a plain, blue background. The simple image would be used prominently in the advertising of the album. The cover received many comparisons to the Feelies' album ''Crazy Rhythms''. On some vinyl pressings of the album, the cover does not crop off their feet. On the Deluxe Edition case, the feet are presented on the back cover, and the band sold an official t-shirt with a shot of the band's feet after the deluxe edition release. Inside the album booklet, Rivers Cuomo pays tribute to his past metal influences with a photo taken in the group's garage on Amherst (this same garage would be featured in the "Say It Ain't So" music video). A poster of Judas Priest's album ''British Steel'' is featured on the left side of the photo, while on the right a Quiet Riot concert poster is displayed. The ''Deluxe Edition'' features additional photographs of the band, and hand-written lyrics for each song.
