After fourteen years of metal in the Australian music scene, d-beat hardcore outfit Dark Horse feel they are only now just starting to hit their straps.Three albums deep, Dark Horse recently brought in a new bass player, in the process reinvigorating the line-up and providing greater impetus for the future. As well as nearing completion on a split 7" with Canberra based Blight Worms, Dark horse are also preparing to decimate the fifth annual Metal In The Mountains, to be held on November 30.To be held in the Beechworth Historic District and also featuring Sordid Ordeal, Mammon's Throne, Munitions, The Krugers and more, Metal In The Mountains promises to be even better this year with a talented line-up and ample space to make as much noise as possible.HEAVY caught up with vocalist Dennis and bass player Dale to talk more."I haven't been," Dennis replied when asked about Metal In The Mountains, "but know quite a few friends that have played there with their bands, and they said it's an excellent festival with very good organisation and lovely crowds. So I can't wait to actually go somewhere where we haven't been."We ask what punters can expect live from Dark Horse."It's the same Dark Horse energy," Dale began. "It's funny, I was a big fan of the band before I joined, and Dark Horse is one of the most consistent bands, rip your face off every time. It's 30 minutes of intense energy, riffs, and in your face and off your face."In the full interview, we discussed Dark Horse's sound and style, with Dale mentioning that they have found a formula over the years, which involves going fast, heavy, and being in-your-face. We also discussed songs to listen to in order to prepare for the live performance and Dale's background in playing in bands for 30 years. Dale shared that they were working on a 7-inch split with Canberra-based band Blight Worms, which they recorded in a single day. They also mentioned plans for a full-length album next year. In terms of live performances, Dale confirmed upcoming shows in Sydney, Melbourne, Erskineville, and Dulwich Hill plus more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Send us a Text Message.What an incredible collection! Gary and I visited their fantastic terrace house in Erskineville, where every wall is adorned with art. Tune in now to discover how they built their collection, the day jobs that support their passion, how they select each piece, and what they hope their legacy will be. It's a great conversation with two fascinating individuals—thank you, Gordon and Michael! 'The Elliott Eyes Collection (TEEC) of contemporary art is housed in a private Victorian terrace house in Erskineville, Sydney NSW.The collection of approximately 400 works (sculpture, painting and ceramics) focuses mainly on Australian and New Zealand art, but also includes work by German, Belgium, American, South African and English artists, all of which are on display. Four major outdoor sculptures extend the collection beyond the usual interior walls, tables, mantels and, in our case, even the floor of the house. The decision to open tEEC to public tours was prompted by a visit to Terry Stringer's sculpture park “Zealandia” north of Auckland and by our inclusion in Skadi Heckmueller's book, “Private: A Guide to Personal Art Collections in Australia and New Zealand” (Dott Publishing, 2015). It also follows the opening of the Lyon Housemusem and the Justin Art House Museum in Melbourne; both exceptional collections and buildings well worth a visit.It is also motivated by the realization that once works become part of a private collection they can easily be ‘lost' to public view. Sharing these works, and listening to other people's comments and responses adds immensely to the pleasure we are lucky to experience as we engage with and enjoy the collection on a daily basis.The wonderful experience provided by the recent trend of house museums, is that each venue is truly individual and unique; expressing the personal interests and character of the owners/collectors. Allen Weiss in "The Grain of the Clay" (Reaction Books,2016) has described collecting, or a collection, as an autobiographical statement. Unencumbered by the boundaries, rules and bureaucracy of public galleries, the house musem displays the passion of the collector – individualistic, subjective, imaginative and zany.It is important to say that we live permanently with our collection. We are not a museum or a gallery. Artworks are displayed and incorporated into the everyday spaces of our house, working around the normal aspects and tasks of a standard household. We find ourselves drying off in the shower, trying to avoid knocking over Jim Cooper's large ceramic flower and duck or, in quieter moments, spending endless hours trying to decipher just what is going on in Mark Whalon's mysterious and deliciously perverse paintings. Some works are functional – Michael Snape's security door - while others are more traditional, decorative pieces, acquired and admired simply because they are beautiful or significant works in contemporary (Australian) art history. While our collection is constantly growing, sometimes in divergent, unexpected directions, it's central focus is on the figure in the landscape. This theme is only loosely adhered to, so an outlier work of art can easily capture our attention and find it's way into the collection. Some works are ‘serious' (e.g. our obsession with the 1950s and 1960s paintings by James Gleeson) and others are just ‘fun' (e.g. Madeleine Child's ceramic popcorn).'

In March 2018, I was in a tough spot, grappling with the loss of my grandma and deeply tied to my Polish roots. Back then, I was living in Erskineville and had become the go-to guy for cocaine. It was more than just a party drug; it filled a void, giving me a sense of ease and a confidence boost I couldn't find on my own. Mixed with alcohol, it became my crutch, numbing my anxiety and fueling a reckless disregard for the consequences. This cocktail made me feel the way I always longed to feel naturally: confident, whole, and content. Fast forward to today, and things are a world apart. So, how did I break this cycle? How did I move past an environment filled with bullying and name-calling, and shake the feeling that I was eternally unlovable? The journey wasn't a straight path. It involved deep introspection, a pursuit of self-love, and the acknowledgment that, although we can always improve, we're already perfect just as we are. This was the topic of my live event at the Heat Fitness Retreat in Sydney, Australia. If you're curious to hear more, tune in to this week's episode where I delve into my personal struggles with self-doubt and how I managed to turn my life around. Join me, and let's learn how to stop being our own worst enemies and start living our best lives. Let's dive in! Key Takeaways: Intro (00:00) Rejection is god's redirection (01:49) Disconnect to reconnect (11:52) Building a better relationship with myself (23:23) How to figure out your purpose (30:15) Self-love - the secret to success (42:07) Become the person you were born to be (53:52) The power of saying yes (59:18) Additional Resources:

If you've been listening to this podcast over the years, you would probably know I'm a self-confessed Archibald tragic. I'm fascinated by the depiction of the human face and figure in paint and that is exactly what the prize celebrates each year at the Art Gallery of NSW. The Archibald Prize is Australia's most famous portrait prize and is now in its 100th year. This episode is a compilation of clips from my conversations with Archibald winners where they talk about how they felt about winning, what it did for their career or about the painting itself. I've also included a clip from my conversation with biographer Scott Bevan where we talked about what was arguably the most controversial Archibald win - the 1943 winning portrait by William Dobell of fellow artist Joshua Smith. See below for a list of podcast guests, the year they won the prize and their portraits. Click on the name to go to the full interview. A video based on this episode will be posted to the Talking with Painters YouTube channel in a few weeks.

If you were judging Daniel Pym purely by office location, you'd think he's got it made to be sitting in Australia's highest performing Ray White office and writing up 7-figure deals to cardiologists, executives and other members of Sydney's high-income community. But that would be a narrow assessment. The truth is that over 15+ years of broking, Daniel has made more mistakes than most, and had some experiences that you wouldn't envy. But these experiences, good, bad and indifferent have moulded Daniel's values, his service proposition, and his work ethic. Upon entering the industry, Daniel accelerated his learning simply by doing 50+ appointments per month.  Back then, his process was less refined than it is today, but the sheer volume of activity built his knowledge, his competence, and his client base.   And, though the early days didn't always go to plan it's the sum total of these qualities that have contributed in no small way to Daniel earning the trust of his affluent clients and the estate agents whom he collaborates with. With a philosophy of holding onto good people, Daniel recently opened up a second office in Erskineville and promoted his loan writer Tommy to run that branch.   You will appreciate Daniel's candor in this interview where he helps us understand exactly what it's been like to earn the kudos that is now coming his way.   Daniel Pym - Loan Market site Danie's email address Double Your Settlements: Watch this free training so you can double your settlement volumes with structure and consistency.

My guest today is Christina Hoff Sommers - former Philosophy professor at Clark University in the US and currently a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute. Find her on twitter @CHSommersHer work mainly focuses on gender politics, feminism and free speech in universities.She’s out in Australia for the #feminist events with Roxanne Gay - Sydney Friday 29th and Melbourne Sunday 31st. Now I know she’s a divisive figure, and I personally don’t agree with some of the things that she said in our conversation, but I get where she’s coming from and why she’s coming at those topics from those angles. I felt it was important to have a conversation with someone that I might disagree with on some part of their message - but at the same time find places that we may connect. You’ll hear a few times that we do indeed find some resonance, but the larger focus on the conversation for me was figuring out what it is to be her. To be someone who’s shouted down in universities, to be excommunicated from an academic faculty that she’d been a part of for so long for questioning a status quo. Even though Christina does question the value of trigger warnings in this conversation - I’ll tell you right now, one of her big topics that she covers is sexual assault on campuses - so if that’s an issue for you, perhaps you’ll want to check back in for the next episode come Monday. If you want to reach out to her she’s very active on twitter: @CHSommersThat being said, come with me to Erskineville in inner-western Sydney and sit down for a conversation with Christina Hoff Sommers.

Wendy Sharpe is one of Australia’s most acclaimed and significant painters. She won the Art Gallery of NSW’s Sulman prize in 1986 and has been powering through the art world ever since. She went on to win Australia’s most well-known art award, the Archibald prize, she’s won the Portia Geach - twice - and many other awards. She’s reportedly been finalist more times than any other artist in the Sulman prize and this year is no exception with her brilliant work 'Erskineville train station'. Sharpe has had 57 solo shows, has received many major commissions which include Australian Official War Artist to East Timor, the first woman to do so since World War II. Her work is bold, energetic, vibrant – spanning from a suburban street, to a circus tent, taking in scenes from around the world from China to Egypt, and even Antarctica. We weren’t able to cover everything she’s done in her career but in this episode you’ll hear us talk about women in the arts, including the dreaded term ‘woman painter’, the real and the imagined and lots of insights into the wonderful process of painting. We met in her huge studio in St Peters in Sydney an absolute Aladdin's cave of materials, art books, posters, sketchbooks, and mountains of painting rags. She was engaging, interesting and generous with her knowledge of painting and I really enjoyed meeting her. To hear the podcast interview press 'play' below the feature photo above.

Episode 40, Live from Erskineville

This week we were joined by Sydney musician OKENYO, who spoke to us about her new single Woman's World. She spoke about equality in the corporate world, making political statements through art. We spoke about the toxic culture of sexual violence in the music industry, from Rick Ross recently stating that he wouldn’t sign a lady to Maybach Music because he wouldnt be able to not have sex with them, to R Kelly and Dr Luke. To counter that we wanted to share NPR's list of the 150 Greatest Albums Made By Women.  In current politics, Trump has announced on Twitter that transgender people will be banned from serving in the US millitary, despite the military spending five times as much on Viagra as it would on transgender troops' medical care. We rounded off the show with the new Charli XCX track Boys. The self-directed, boy-packed video, which turns the tables on gender roles and the male gaze in pop videos, has Diplo and Khalid cuddling with puppies, Joe Jonas tucking into a tall stack, Riz Ahmed getting cozy with a teddy bear, Panic! at the Disco’s Brendon Urie in a pile of rose petals, and so on. Women In The Arts will be hosting a panel discussion on July 29 in Erskineville as part of Island Salon's launch. Island Salon unites a band of female artists across a broad spectrum of media in an immersive, island-inspired cinema experience. We'll be hosting a panel talk with Island Salon participants Philippa Barr, Kate Brown, Jannah Quill and Eugene Choi, so come along for some live music, poetry, performance and conversation.

The average pedestrian would never know that behind the dusty street corners, nostalgic terraces and anti-Westconnex signs of one quiet street in St Peters, Sydney, lies award-winning artist Wendy Sharpe’s studio. A simple note pinned to the door of her warehouse says, "Wendy Sharpe? Please ring lower bell." Those brave enough to ring enter a fantastic realm filled with gilt chandeliers, paintings, piles of clothes, scribbles, swatches, and an enormous table where Sharpe herself sits painting. Over a 35 year career, Sharpe has quietly developed a reputation for paintings and drawings filled with bold brushstrokes, vibrant colours and strong female characters. In 1986, she won the Sulman Prize: an eclectic award for subject and genre paintings. Ten years later, she took out its more famous sister prize, the Archibald, with Self Portrait as Diana of Erskineville, 1996. She’s been a war artist, a teacher and a humanitarian portrait-maker, creating works from a vast array of materials, hundreds of thousands of marks telling her unique stories. And beneath those marks, 2 layers or 10 layers deep: countless mistakes.

We sat down with Dan Summers from Frozen Booze Reviews & Adam Parker from The Hive to discuss Sydney Craft Beer Week, Craft Beer Industry Association Award results for 2015, the hospitality side of the industry and of course, The Hive Bar in Erskineville, New South Wales.
