De RigueurMortis, correctly italicised: De RigueurMortis or simply De Rig is a 2001 album by Australian alternative-rock group TISM (This Is Serious Mum). Initial copies of this release (dubbed the ‘Connoisseur's Edition’) include several untitled tracks and a bonus CD titled "2Pot Screama", a 41 minute "rock opera in one act". TISM have described "2Pot Screama", as "West Side Story with tourette's syndrome".

The title is taken from a line in the song "Come Back DJ, Your Record is Scratched".

The album cover is a tribute to the fantasy-themed artwork of Roger Dean famous for his work with art rock bands such as Yes.

Album info

De RigueurMortis was intended to be under the same structure as their earlier albums, Great Truckin' Songs of the Renaissance (1988) and Hot Dogma (1990) which both had a large number of tracks, most of which were snippets of other recordings or diatribes. This album did indeed follow that same structure, but only the tracks which were actual songs were listed on the albums release. The rest, although originally being untitled, have since their titles listed via Internet music information providers. However, upon the re-release of the album onto digital music service iTunes, the unlisted tracks were finally given 'official' names.
