Album: The White Albun by TISM (2004)
Format: Album

Description: The White Albun is the sixth and final studio album by Australian alternative rock band TISM, released on 24 June 2004 by Madman Entertainment. The title is a reference to and deliberate misspelling of The White Album, an unofficial name for the album The Beatles.

Appropriate to TISM's humour and mockery of the music industry, the album is only available as part of a larger package containing two DVDs. The first DVD is titled A Film By Antonionioni which is, in fact, not a film but a live concert called "Save Our TISM" featuring, in true TISM style, a fake telethon running behind the band. The second DVD is TISM: A Docunentary (keeping with the 'n' theme) which features lengthy interviews of the band and a history of TISM.

Artist Background: TISM (an acronym of This Is Serious Mum) was a seven piece anonymous alternative rock band from Melbourne, Australia. The group was formed in 1982 and enjoyed a large underground/independent following. Their third album Machiavelli and the Four Seasons reached the Australian national top 10 in 1995. TISM were known for its hybrid of dance music and rock'n'roll, high-energy live shows and humorous lyrics. TISM's songs frequently satirised modern culture, celebrities and the entertainment indus... Part of the Melbourne music scene. Emerged in the 1980s era. Known for Rock style.
