Lol Tolhurst opens up about his new book “Goth: A History,” collaborating with Robert Smith and touring with Siouxsie and the Banshees — and why the subculture welcomes everyone.
Though he may not wear his hair quite as tall and unkempt as he once did, and he’s ditched the smeared eyeliner and all-black dress code, founding member of The Cure Lol Tolhurst still considers himself goth. Life looks vastly different now for Tolhurst, who played drums and keyboard on some of the best-loved albums of the late 1970s and ‘80s. He’s still a musician, with an album on the way with his contemporaries and fellow veterans of the scene, Budgie and Jacknife Lee.
