Skeptics Documentary 'Sheen of Gold' To Premiere at NZIFF

Earlier this month we streamed an album from the legendary band the Skeptics. We indicated at the time that a documentary about the band was in the works and it has now been announced that the documentary, titled 'Sheen of Gold', will premiere at the New Zealand International Film Festival this year. Directed by Simon Ogston of Bellbird Pictures, here is the trailer for the film which should screen nationwide as part of the festival...

Also, a Wellington screening of footage from Skeptics' final show at Auckland venue the Gluepot in 1990, which also features in the documentary, has been announced. It will take place on June 21st at the Paramount with both Simon Ogston and Bob Sutton (who shot the Gluepot footage) speaking.

UPDATE: Flying Nun have also confirmed the re-release of Skeptics' entire back catalogue starting with III and Amalgam due in August.
