TISM's Damian Cowell's songs from the 90s zeitgeist
from Take 5 · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation
TISM were one of the biggest Australian bands of the 90’s. They were the godfathers of musical comedy, captains of satire and frankly, a band that when I listen to today, I’m still gobsmacked by. They hailed from Melbourne but played all over; masked men who would put on insane shows full of bizarre concepts and songs like “Defecate On My Face” and “Saturday Night Palsy”. TISM were the ultimate shit stirrers, and we loved it. Humphrey B Flaubert AKA Damian Cowell reminded us of why the 90’s helped a band like that flourish, and share five songs from the zeitgeist himself. From pop princesses to Brissie bands that have never played by the rules, it’s not only one of the funniest Take 5’s you’ll hear but a capture of a unique and wonderful time in Australian music. This is seriously, one for the ages.Caligula - 'The Bluff'Kylie Minogue - 'Did It Again'Regurgitator - 'Black Bugs'Custard - 'Nice Bird'Fauves - 'Easy (Easy)'
