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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47289093325036,"sku":"9798765114094","price":27.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9069433488869.jpg?v=1770587176"},{"product_id":"tisms-machiavelli-and-the-four-seasons-by-tyler-jenke-9798765114087","title":"TISM's Machiavelli and the Four Seasons","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAn in-depth look at the rise of enigmatic Australian rock band TISM, the unexpected success of their 1995 album, \u003ci\u003eMachiavelli and the Four Seasons\u003c\/i\u003e, and the continued trajectory of their storied career.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFocusing 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, \u003ci\u003eMachiavelli and the Four Seasons\u003c\/i\u003e (1995).
