The Leather Nun's 1985 single "Desolation Ave" is a harsh, uncompromising slab of industrial-tinged post-punk that sounds like a transmission from a bleak future. It was released late in their career on the small Wire Records label.
- The single was released on October 21, 1985, on the independent label Wire Records.
- The B-side to "Desolation Ave" was a track titled "The Great Escape".
- The Leather Nun disbanded in 1987, two years after the release of this single.
The Leather Nun were a British post-punk band formed in London in 1979. They were known for their transgressive, heavily sexualized performances and a confrontational, often minimalist sound.
