SPIN: Blame Nirvana - 40 Weirdest Post Nevermind Major Label Albums

Back in 2013, SPIN magazine compiled a list of the 40 weirdest albums released on major labels after the release of Nevermind, otherwise known as the alternative rock gold rush. Landing on the list is Jim Shepard's V-3 and their 1996 album Photograph Burns released on Onion/American.
By the time of his first and only major-label release, the late Columbus, Ohio musician Jim Shepard had compiled a body of work that was a veritable maze of home-recorded D.I.Y., stretching back to the late-'70s. Photograph Burns is a chaotic, from-the-gut amalgam of Neil Young and Crazy Horse, post-punk, and the muddy sounds of the "lo-fi" explosion, from a guy who lived through it all.
