I saw Leather Nun when they played in Philadelphia (August 1988, I think it was their only US tour; I still have the show on tape!). I yelled out for Ensam I Natt and the lead singer looked over at me with an expression on his face that read something like "How the fuck do you know about that?!" They were great. Overall, bands like Leather Nun, Nomads, etc.., along with Aussie acts like Birdman/New Christs/New Race played a heavy hand as far as what a lot of us in the Philly punk scene in the mid-'80s were listening to and buying.
Thanks for all the music to check out
Awesome, just watched Part 1 (Swedish punk) yesterday
Thought you meant Roxette 😂

Fantastic. And that’s all mandatory listening for nerds like us.
