A loose, experimental project spearheaded by Steven Stapleton, Nurse with Wound explore abstract music -- influenced by Krautrock, musique concrète, freewheeling jazz improvisation, and Throbbing Gristle but including a heavy debt to surrealists Dali and Lautréamont -- with an overpowering release schedule of limited-edition albums and EPs.

Stapleton has worked with an ever-changing list of collaborators, though Current 93's David Tibet was the only frequent recording companion during the 1980s and '90s; Andrew Liles and Colin Potter have both remained frequent contributors since then.
