While working "Amalgam" in 1989, David D'Ath learned that he had leukaemia. D'Ath never got to see the finished product which however, it is cited to be a tribute to David. It shows Skeptics at their best, dark brooding with a wall of noise created by the bands unique talent and adaptation of early sampling technology. ,Amalgam" is all encompassing. Re-issued in conjunction with Simon Ogston's 80-minute documentary which tells the complete and compelling story of Skeptics. "Sheen of Gold" premieres at this year's NZ International Film Festival
