We investigate non-equilibrium lane formation in a generic model of a fluid with attractive interactions, that is, a two-dimensional Lennard-Jones (LJ) fluid composed of two particle species driven in opposite directions. Performing Brownian Dynamics (BD) simulations for a wide range of parameters, supplemented by a stability analysis based on dynamical density functional theory (DDFT), we identify generic features of lane formation in presence of attraction, including structural properties. In fact, we find a variety of states (as compared to purely repulsive systems), as well as a close relation between laning and long wavelength instabilities of the homogeneous phase such as demixing and condensation.
