This isn't a comeback album — it's a magazine, which means the only \"random pull\" math you need to do is deciding whether you're a one-cover person or a collect-them-all person. 📸\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich cover is your bias's bias?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🌿 \u003cstrong\u003eCover A\u003c\/strong\u003e — quiet-luxury energy in an oversized ash-grey and cream suit, tie loosened just enough, shot outdoors on a garden path.

The only difference is which cover image is on the front.
