A new documentary chronicling the turbulent career of Death From Above 1979 is due for release next month.

The film will feature interviews with the band, as well as cameos from The Strokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Justice and Metric, and attempts to explain why the band broke up after just one album and on the brink of huge success.

"They were in such an amazing position to become a really big band," says the new trailer for the documentary, "and they just stopped."

In the same trailer, the band explain: "We broke up because we stopped being friends essentially. We were on tour forever, and hated doing it and hated each other. We were constantly always killing ourselves."

Watch the trailer for Life After Death From Above 1979

Life After Death From Above is due for release on 7 October, and will be available to watch through Vimeo On Demand.
