Pretty Things Don’t Last


SoulPunx Records



EP out: July 16th




Pretty Things Don’t Last is an EP about impermanence, distortion, and the beauty found in what’s unstable, broken, and intense. It moves through chaos, desire, power, disillusionment, and rebellion, tracing a journey where control is questioned and identity is constantly reshaped. Each track captures a different way of surviving a world that rewards appearances but starves authenticity.

The EP rejects the idea of purity and permanence. It embraces contradiction: love that hurts, freedom that feels dangerous, confidence born from damage, and truth that constantly shifts shape. These songs exist in the space between attraction and destruction, where beauty fades quickly and intensity becomes the only honest language.

From sarcastic defiance to psychological power games, from emotional numbness to the craving for recognition, Pretty Things Don’t Last portrays a generation that no longer believes in fixed meanings. Instead, it chooses instinct over rules, chaos over comfort, and the “wrong” life over a “good” one that offers nothing real.

It is an EP about choosing sensation over safety, identity over approval, and freedom over illusion—because what is fragile, unstable, and fleeting is often the only thing that truly feels alive.

TRACKLIST & MEANING

( Full Lenght 22,63 min )

Serve Me Some Crime (4:16)
A sarcastic manifesto about embracing chaos and contradiction, where crime, jokes, and denial become tools of personal freedom.
It celebrates choosing instinct and madness over routine, control, and the suffocating seriousness of everyday life.

How She’s Got It (4:17)
A hypnotic reflection on illusion and identity, where truth feels interchangeable and belief slowly fades into emotional distance.
It captures the moment you stop chasing explanations and accept mystery, coldness, and ambiguity as a form of freedom.

Toxic Twins (3:48)
A dark portrayal of a toxic, co-dependent relationship where lies become a way to survive emotional pain and maintain control.
It questions truth and morality, showing how love, manipulation, and self-deception blur the line between what feels right and what is destructive.

Cold Habit  (4:10)
A defiant embrace of the “wrong” path as the only one that feels real, alive, and honest in a world where being good brings no reward.
It celebrates choosing intensity over obedience, proving that freedom is sometimes found in what’s broken, not in what’s approved.

Money For The Honey (3:43)
A restless anthem about craving recognition and intensity, using bravado and performance to mask vulnerability and loneliness.
It captures the urge to feel alive and seen, turning inner chaos into art, noise, and survival.

Radio Funeral (3:29)
A provocative inner monologue about transforming damage into authority, where revenge becomes a form of self-creation and awakening.
It explores the thrill of taking control of one’s own narrative, turning fear and wounds into fuel for power and reinvention.

 

The band has just wrapped production in June on a live-in-studio performance video featuring selected tracks from the upcoming EP, recorded at the legendary Funkhaus Berlin. The release—which includes an exclusive band interview—is scheduled for late this summer.
