A part of the lavish new package the record is release as a part of is the documentary Breadcrumb Trail, directed by music video mastermind Lance Bangs and a trailer for this documentary has been released online this weekend.

The band's story isn't a widely told one, but how a band as young and innocent as them came to make such a masterpiece that has gone on to be so influential is absolutely fascinating.

There is no word as to whether there will be Australian screenings of the film, so at this stage the only way to ensure you get a copy is to order the box set, which you can do here. It looks amazing, but it's not cheap.
