The Last Little Life EP is the first collection of new material from The Rentals in more than 8 years, released August 14, 2007. It is also the first release to feature the current line-up of the band since the 2006 reunion. In addition to three brand new tracks, the EP also includes a new reworking of "Sweetness and Tenderness" originally from the group's 1995 debut Return of the Rentals. Their third full-length album was to follow after the EP's release, But it was replaced by The multimedia project Songs About Time in 2009. A third album, named Lost in Alphaville, was eventually released in 2014 to positive reviews.
