The publication was co-founded by Jon Swinstead and Adam Dewhurst and published by Swinstead Publishing. It was given away for free to clubbers for one and a half years until its launch in 1996 as a high street magazine. It featured bands and artists ranging from underground acts such as Genesis P-Orridge to pop acts such as New Order. "Founded as a free London club listings guide, it went on to enjoy an eight year reign as the world’s most anarchic, unpredictable fashion title, as likely to run a six-page feature on gout as it was a Gucci gatefold," wrote Jack Mills in a nostalgic 2015 Wonderland magazine feature. Supermodel Agyness Dean named Sleazenation as her teeange favourite in a 2010 Friday Night with Jonathan Ross appearance. Absolute Radio DJ and podcaster Dave Berry is also a vocal modern-day fan. Like Dazed and Confused, Sleazenation is associated with the hipster regeneration of London's east end in the late 1990s. Writing about the magazine's influence in Resident Advisor during November 2021, reporter Harriet Shepherd observed, "looking back at it now Sleaze Nation is a historic record of the gentrification that has characterised London's cultural fabric—reported, almost unknowingly, in real-time." The early of home of many writers, designers, photographers and artists who would go on to achieve success, Sleaze Nation has also been celebrated in its modern-day contemporaries Wonderland and Show Studio. "Back then, the style media was a way into journalism for young talent from outside London. It was feasible then, but that door has totally closed. Who can just move into Hoxton Square on spec now?" founding editor Steve Beale told The Guardian during a 2015 article on east London TV pastiche Nathan Barley.
