September was an exciting month at Outsideleft, deviating slightly, and you know how much we love deviation - deviating slightly from our normal fare of unknowns and unknowables, Alan Rider scooped two big, massive and idiosyncratic interviews. The founding member of The Cure, Lol Tolhurst, mainly discussed his new book of Goth; and an interview with Alaura O'Dell formerly of Psychic TV, which sort of, if these things could actually happen, would have melted our servers like a run on the FTX cyrptocurrency exchange. Truly, that big. And as we look down this list of hits, so much great stuff in one month. Don't ask how we do it unless you love idk's.
