How many digital-retailer-exclusive live EPs does one band need? At least three if you're Death Cab for Cutie, who have released that number in the last few months alone.

Putting these things out seems to be the band's biggest hobby these days, aside from playing politics-related gigs.

The third of these EPs is an iTunes offering called Live From Las Vegas at the Palms, featuring five songs that Death Cab for Cutie played live...from Las Vegas...at the Palms. The EP is available now. (Side note: This EP features the same songs as the Rhapsody one, just in a slightly different order.)

Death Cab for Cutie begin their big fall tour in support of Narrow Stairs on October 3. Updating previous reports, the band is no longer on the bill for New Orleans' Voodoo Music Experience on October 26.

Live From Las Vegas at the Palms:

01 Brothers on a Hotel Bed
02 Grapevine Fires
03 I Will Possess Your Heart
04 Photobooth
05 Talking Bird
