PRE-OWNED CD

DESCRIPTION
2021 Australian remastered CD reissue of the rare 1984 debut demo cassette from legendary Melbourne alternative rock and satirical music collective TISM (This Is Serious Mum). Originally circulated in extremely limited quantities before the band's rise to cult status, these early recordings capture their experimental sound, irreverent humour and unconventional songwriting. Includes "The Art-Income Dialectic," "Defecate On My Face," "I Go To Werribee," "Crime Against The Spirit Oo Poo Pee Doo" and "The Reserection," alongside hidden audio. Released through Genre B.Goode and DRW, this remastered edition offers a fascinating glimpse into the origins of one of Australia's most distinctive and controversial alternative acts. An essential release for dedicated TISM fans and collectors of Australian underground music.
