An in-depth look at the rise of enigmatic Australian rock band TISM, the unexpected success of their 1995 album, Machiavelli and the Four Seasons, and the continued trajectory of their storied career.
Focusing on one of Australia's most enigmatic bands, This Is Serious Mum (better known as TISM), Tyler Jenke forms an in-depth analysis of the anonymous, pseudonymous Melbourne collective's rise to prominence and unlikely success on the popular music charts with their third album, Machiavelli and the Four Seasons (1995). Jenke details TISM's origins as they slowly went from a bedroom concept to an underground success to a staple of concert stages and commercial radio in Australia, growing a rabid fanbase in the process.
Despite the anti-commercial tendencies of TISM, whose album artwork didn't feature the band, whose band members performed under pseudonyms and who rarely gave interviews, never mind sincere answers, TISM became a commercially successful group. In this book, Jenke identifies the steps the band took to shift their sound from their tried-and-true experimental Australian pub-rock roots to the burgeoning, youthful electronic music genre, employing synthesizers and samplers. With their new sound, TISM incorporated Dadaism - the use of unusual or everyday sounds - and both avant-garde and classic pop musicianship. The band's new sound resulted in both top ten success and an ARIA Award. This is the first book to dissect TISM's rise to fame within the Australian music industry and analyze TISM's status as one of the most memorable, mysterious and paradoxically successful groups in the country's vibrant alternative music scene.
