This album marks a return to the artwork of Russell Mills, whose work was previously used for ''[[March Of The Pigs (halo)|March Of The Pigs]]'', ''The Downward Spiral'', ''[[Further Down The Spiral]]'' and ''[[Closure]]''. There is a different cover for each of the five editions. Reznor stated in a radio interview[http://soundcloud.com/q877/walt-talks-with-trent-reznor] that he couldn't choose between the various covers and decided to use them all. He also stated that Mills had suggested the album title.The typeface used is DINEngschrift in lowercase (the same typeface was used on the previous Russell Mills designs and in all caps on ''[[The Perfect Drug (halo)|The Perfect Drug]]''.)
Some of the alternate covers are used within the packaging of the other editions, i.e. the cover of the standard CD is inside the gatefold of the vinyl, the cover of the iTunes Deluxe Edition is on the booklet of the standard CD, etc. The covers of the international and Japanese standard CDs are a variation on the cover of the US standard CD, with the painting oriented sideways and, in the case of the Japanese cover, photographed from a slightly different vantage point and lighter in hue. The digital Audiophile Mastered Version cover is a variation on the standard digital cover, with the painting again oriented sideways.
<blockquote>"The artworks, (30 mixed media pieces) that I eventually produced towards uses in the ''Hesitation Marks'' releases, evolved out of lengthy exchanges between myself and Trent and in response to the conceptual ideas that thread through the tracks and to the sonic territory that the album explores. I’ve tried to lock into the album’s prevailing mood and echo the album’s essence. The ideas are not communicated in a literal or easily digested form, as this would be boring for me and would insult the intelligence of a potential audience. I’ve tried to make works that obliquely allude to the essence of the subject matter, to its emotional core.
As with my self-initiated works - the paintings, assemblages, collages and multimedia installations - personal ideas and obsessions seep into these works. The organic, the natural, prevailing over or feeding into the industrial, the man made, is a common theme in my work generally and in this instance was particularly apt for the art required.
The works explore ideas of catharsis, of being into dissolution into being, both on a personal and sociological level. They allude to ideas about chaos and order. They deal with ways of suggesting presence in absence. They are a cross between the forensic and a pathology of the personal in which only fragments remain, in which minimal clues can suggest events that may have occurred. They attempt to harness the chaos of a situation, of now, of the personal trauma, of the human condition, into a form that is coherent, a form that accommodates the mess without disguising it as something else. It attempts to capture the essence of these ideas by implication and exclusion. Beneath the form lies the uncertainty and ceaseless flux of the mess, of the chaos.

==Touring==
''For more information, see [[NIN 2013-2014]]''
The album was supported by a major tour that visited festivals and arenas around the world. For the [[Tension 2013 Tour]], the touring lineup was expanded to eight members (the largest in the history of the band and the first to utilize backup singers) and the visual elements were a logical continuation of those from the [[Lights In The Sky Tour]]. The tour also included two co-headlining legs, one with [[Queens Of The Stone Age]] and one with [[Soundgarden]]. Several shows were filmed and will be part of for inclusion in a DVD and Blu-ray package released in 2015, though the current status of the project is unknown.
