The EP was previewed by two 2026 singles. “Serve Me Some Crime” arrived first, on 20 March 2026, followed by “How She’s Got It” on 8 May 2026. Both singles came with videos directed and edited by Jack Lucas Laugeni and are available across digital platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music and Bandcamp. The band’s most recent single, “Money for the Honey”, followed on 19 June 2026 with its own video.

“Pretty Things Don’t Last” was produced by Sonny Lanegan, engineered, mixed and mastered by Damiano Paoloni, and recorded at Sound Distillery in Italy. The lineup is Sonny Lanegan (vocals, guitars, synthesizers and programming), Nessie Zorba (keyboards and percussion) and Roberto Catanzaro (drums). Noir Addiction cite Nine Inch Nails, Depeche Mode and Gary Numan as reference points for their sound.

About Noir Addiction

Noir Addiction is an Italy-based industrial rock and alternative rock project founded by Sonny Lanegan. Before Noir Addiction, Lanegan worked as a singer-songwriter for White Pulp and co-founded The Dead Good during a period based in Los Angeles; his music has appeared in television and film productions including “Mozart in the Jungle”, “Iron Fist” and “Z Nation”.

The project’s public release timeline opened with the single “Chemical Bride” on 27 June 2025, followed by “Lust Of The Flesh” on 6 August 2025 and the 11-track album “Decadent Desire” on 9 September 2025. Side-Line reported in March 2026 that the previous lineup had split over a “difference in vision”, leaving Noir Addiction fronted by Lanegan with Nessie Zorba on keyboards and percussion and Roberto Catanzaro on drums. The 2026 singles “Serve Me Some Crime”, “How She’s Got It” and “Money for the Honey” precede the six-track EP “Pretty Things Don’t Last”, which SoulPunx Records – the Berlin label founded in 2017 by Konstantin Dellos – releases on 16 July 2026.

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
