Stisism were an American punk rock band from New York City

Stisism formed in the early 80's, and played their first gig on September 14th, 1983. They borrowed players from other local bands such as Adrenalin OD until thir lineup stablized when Fiona Lynn joined the band. The band played a snotty 1977-style punk rock in the vein of The Dead Boys. Their lyrics are nonpolitical, instead derived from the members' interests, including horror and B-movies. Often the songs and lyrical content were fun and humorous.

Maximum RocknRoll #150 featured an extensive five-page interview with the band. All releases received great reviews in various zines at the time.^{[citation needed]}
