In early 2002, the track "[[Honk If You Love Fred Durst]]" was released as a single. In 2002, Festival Mushroom Records released ''[[tism.bestoff.]]'', a [[best of]] compilation which included their greatest hits, two new tracks and a disc of remastered Bedroom Recordings. The compilation was their third, and last, release with Festival Mushroom Records, as TISM's contract had ended. Finding themselves with no record label again, TISM returned to touring.
