Anatomy of Heavy Album Covers: Caroline Harrison on Big Feelings

We dive into the emotional and conceptual work behind some of heavy music’s most striking imagery. Visual artist Caroline Harrison talks about translating sound into feeling, why discomfort can be beautiful, and how album art becomes an extension of the music itself.

From obsessive lyric study and research rabbit holes to themes of anxiety, tenderness, violence, and feminine rage, Caroline breaks down her process, her collaborations with bands, and the personal history embedded in her work. This is a conversation about art as emotional regulation, connection, and survival – and why some images are meant to make you feel uneasy before they make you feel understood.
