"Start the Machine," which was released in the U.S. June 17, was filmed over three years beginning in 2005 and tells the story of Blink-182's break-up from DeLonge's perspective, the recording of AVA's 2006 debut album "We Don't Need to Whisper" and DeLonge's struggle through his painkiller addiction.
The 72-minute DVD also includes live footage from AVA's first headlining tour and music videos.
The documentary was directed by Mark Eaton, whom DeLonge and AVA guitarist Mark Kennedy personally contacted and asked to make the film. Eaton also directed the band's music video "Secret Crowds."
Canunk fans who want a sneak preview can check out the trailer on the band's MySpace page.
