Bushrangers were active in the area and visitors can see a prayer book made by Frank Gardiner whilst he was in Gaol on Cockatoo Island. You will find rare and intriguing items from the past in the various sections of the Museum.
From household items, farm equipment, a rare 'Autogen Gas Light Machine', gold mining tools, dental equipment, barber shop display and a range of clothing from days gone.

There's a lot more texture, and interesting sounds, there's definitely progression and growth. —, in an interview. Prior to the album's release, offered the following brief descriptions of some of the band's new songs: First single 'The Heinrich Maneuver' is a peppy kiss-off to an ex-love now residing on the opposite coast and hits radio May 7; the band has been playing it of late during its just-concluded Canadian tour.
The band is on familiar footing with tracks like the tense 'No I in Threesome' ('Maybe it's time we give something new a try,' frontman Paul Banks sings) and the relentless 'Mammoth,' which are loaded with Daniel Kessler's simple, repeated guitar riffs and Carlos D's powerful bass underpinnings. There are some new sonic experiments; the album begins with the funereal, nearly six-minute 'Pioneer to the Falls,' featuring Jim Morrison-esque crooning from Banks, and wraps with another unusually ambient piece, 'The Lighthouse.' Hints of soul creep in on the spaced-out 'Rest My Chemistry' ('I haven't slept for two days / I've bathed in nothing but sweat,' Banks sings) and 'Pace Is the Trick.' — article on the band's upcoming release.

At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 70/100, based on 37 professional critic reviews, which indicates 'generally favorable reviews'. Gave it all five stars and said, 'The band have colonised the rich turf at the intersection of meticulously structured mope-rock and free-flowing three-chord pop, where moments of resignation cosy up alongside twinkling hopes for the future like Winehouse to the sauce.' Gave it a favorable review and said that the album 'makes for hugely rewarding listening.' Gave the album four stars out of five and called it 'a majestic, grandiose, machine-tooled album, subtly orchestrated with gothic pianos and doomy organs.' Also gave it four stars out of five and called it 'the type of strung-out confession that fills the junkie mold of classic Bright Lights Interpol-a welcomed revival after the wayward Antics.' Likewise gave the album four stars out of five and said that 'In terms of writing and production, this may be Interpol at their best.' Gave it a favorable review and said that the band 'retains its flair for dramatic images and ominous guitar lines on its major-label debut, but with producer/ mixer Rich Costey onboard, these signatures uncoil into more complex soundscapes.'
Gave it a positive review and said that Interpol are 'tighter than a laser-guided smart bomb, the beats are more swingy, and Carlos D's bass and keys are even more expressive and swooning.' Likewise gave it a favorable review and said, 'The foreboding melancholy of 'Turn on the Bright Lights' has eroded into a sound that's less idiosyncratic; by design or accident, that broad-brush aesthetic coincides with the band's move from an indie label (Matador) to a major one (Capitol).'

Gave it a B and said it 'delivers exactly what's promised, which for fans will be exactly enough.' Gave the album seven stars out of ten and said it 'isn't going to change many minds-those who already liked the band will find plenty to please, and vice versa.'
No Ripcord also gave it seven stars and said the album's lesser tracks 'seem to have placed a greater emphasis on texture than melody or even rhythm, which is arguably the band’s most potent weapon. As a whole, though, Sam Fogarino will be satisfied.' Gave the album three-and-a-half stars out of five and said that it 'may not be the band's Sgt. Pepper, but it's still filled with morbidly catchy treats.' Gave it a positive review and said that 'Somehow the band manages to sound insincere and gorgeous at the same time.' Prefix Magazine also gave it a positive review and said it 'sounds more or less like the last two CDs, and that's its biggest problem.'
Other reviews are average, mixed or negative: gave the album six stars out of ten and said of Interpol: 'Crucially, it seems their ability to write a magisterially moving song such as 'NYC' or 'Obstacle No 1', both from their debut, seems to have abandoned them. In fairness, sonically speaking, this is their best effort yet.' Gave it three stars out of five and also said of Interpol: 'In fleshing out the contours of a sound once slavishly indebted to early-'80s titans like JD and the Smiths, they've nuanced the moods Banks moons over. Awesome for him. Only so-so for us.' Gave it a score of six out of ten and called it 'oddly reined in' and 'a transitional record by a band not yet willing to completely let go of the past.'

Gave it three stars out of five and called it 'undoubtedly impressive: impressive enough, in fact, to counter the fact that Interpol are pretty light on ideas of their own.' Gave the album two stars out of five and said it 'could use more Carlos D.' S low-end bass/keyboard flourishes. Perhaps it's time to turn the lights out.'

Gave it one-and-a-half stars out of five and said it 'isn’t even a contractual obligation to push off without care.' Gave it a D saying that 'they ape New Order's 'Movement,' surely that combo's most static and dullest album.
