Now, I’m sure you’re all studying the album artwork…

VERY carefully.

But who IS that woman…

and how did she end up on the cover?

(Music Cut #3 — “My Own Summer (Shove It)”)

Her name is Lisa Hughes…

and she was hanging out in a jacuzzi…

when photographer Rick Kosick snapped just TWO photos!

Kosick later became known for his work on Jackass…

but at the time even HE didn’t know he’d just photographed a Deftones album cover!
