The promotional cover of Recently exposed a portion of the woman's breast, and the man stood farther back towards the left side of the image, with a pumpkin visible in his left hand. The Recently promo with this cover was released before the EP itself and features different tracks, including an alternate edit of the title song. The promotional release, informally referred to as the "Pumpkin Recently," is currently one of the rarest releases in the band's catalog.^[3]
