    I was incredibly worried about my grandma passing earlier this year. She knew this, and after she got better, she started to make me a cookbook. A hand made cookbook with every recipe she made for me in it. I flipped to the last page, and I saw something that made me feel ok. She put in the back of it, under her picture “All I can ask is that you always think of me as someone who loves you.” I’m balling my eyes out just writing this. I love you Mimi, never change.

      My Mimi died recently two months ago of cancer.
      I wasn't able to see her in person, but I was able to speak on the phone just a couple days before she died.
      I couldn't muster the ability to say anything more than "I love you forever", and I could desperately hear her trying to respond but she was ultimately too weak to speak.
      Sorry if this story is unnecessary, but you calling your grandma the same nickname resonated with me.

      I almost lost my grandmother who was very unwell earlier this year, too. On the way home after giving her a hug in her hospital bed, I felt this overwhelming state of sadness, anger, fear, depression…I wanted to die that very day. This album is so profound and powerful to me, and is my full-on fears of losing my loved ones in musical form, which made me reflect on that day when I listened to this album earlier today. I know one day Nanny will no longer be here, and it will hurt the most, because even my brother’s boyfriend believes like I believe that I will spiral afterwards when it happens. My mother’s passing is going to hurt even more so. As for the future, it’s looking bleak to me, because Poppy’s passing didn’t quite sink in, in 2011, and now that I’m older, I fully understand just how depressing and dark life is, and we are all heading towards the inevitable. There is no silver lining in death. There is no bright future or happy ending. We die, and enter the void forever.

    Fun fact: a few days ago when I first listened to everywhere at the end of time, I listened to it at night. I made it though the first 5 stages. But when the track “A brutal bliss beyond this empty defeat” played, I feel asleep. And I woke up when the terminal lucidity segment was playing, it was probably the most surreal moment of my life. I do wish I had the strength to get through all of stage 6, but it is what it is. Thank so much for this piece of art. Stay strong and take care.

    I listened to Everywhere At The End Of Time in its entirety during a recent trip to the west coast. At one point, sometime during Stage 4, I was driving through Donner Pass just after a bad snow storm. Nobody was around me and I was surrounded by utter loneliness. In Stage 4 the tracks really start to fall apart and the drone looms above everything you hear. I felt like I was disintegrating along with the music. I eventually made it through the pass and eventually completed the album but some small piece of my mind was left there on that lonely highway, the haunting sounds of the album corrupting my peace, dementing my very state of being. I'll never forget that. This album should come with a warning label. It will eat you alive if you're not careful.

    Both lines of my family all struggle with Alzheimer’s/Dementia, and honestly for a long time I was scared. I couldn’t process losing all my memories forgetting the love of my life, my children. So when I heard about EATEOT I was instantly drawn to it, stage 1-2 scared me the most. Throughout the two I kept thinking that this could be me right now, full of life and joy only for it to be forgotten forever. I had to put it down for a couple months until a few months later where I finally decided to sit down and listen to it in it’s entirety. This time even though 1-2 still had that effect on me I kept going and by stage 4 I was hooked. At this point I wouldn’t or couldn’t stop listening. It’s funny because by stage 6 everyone that I’ve seen is sad..crying all that but it helped me find acceptance. Even if this horrible disease does take me, by the time that happens I will have had such a great and fulfilling life that I know I will have people that love me by my side till the end.
    If you read this all I truly thank you, and I hope for the best for every single one of you.

      yeah. ive got some neurological stuff going on, perhaps neurodegenerative. my memory is already bad enough for me to really resonate with stages one and two, haha, and i'm in my mod twenties -- i talke often with my 82 year old stroke survivor grandfather about neurological stuff, and we find we have much in common.
      scared the shit out of me, but that's okay. its good to prepare yourself, you know?
      i've been visiting my grandfather twice a week, lately. my pa passed from covid, and my dad's dad is my only immediate surviving family except my sister. my dad passed a year ago, in my grandfather's living room, and my sister and i both realized how.... limited time truly was, and how badly we wanted to do right by our grandfather.
      i hope things go well for you. i know your pain, but you're right -- we have loved ones here for us, and bad times tomorrow don't undo good times today. cherish that time with them while you can. truly, it can be yanked away in a moment.

    The Caretaker also made some of the first ever vaporwave-esque music as V/VM. I recall listening to John Peel in the early 2000's as a young lad and hearing his tilted edit of Chris DeBurgh's Lady In Red, which blew my mind at the time as I'd never heard anything like it before. Took about another 7 or 8 years for the rest of the world to catch on to these concepts, with OPN later remixing the same track under the "Chuck Person" name. I've always wondered if he got the idea directly from V/VM aka The Caretaker.

    • @DerekPower
      @DerekPower 3 роки тому +13

      Perhaps. Remember that plunderphonics predates both of them through John Oswald. Also, the V/vm stuff was more about confronting a certain music scene out of fondness for another one (Kirby was not a fan at all with what was coming out in the 1990s compared to the 1980s). Daniel Lopatin was not as confrontational. And maybe that was ultimately sparked the scene. And finally: post hoc, ergo propter hoc.
      Personally, I think of JLK as an important parallel to the vapour scene as there are a lot of intersections (yes, botched the metaphor but bare with me =] ). And this is why I think what has been happening is bigger than one individual or even a few.

Although the B-side was a completely busted-up cover of Lionel Richie's "All Night Long" (named "Butcher All Night") which sounded like a Merzbow demotape. Really goes to show the two sides of Kirby's music: Part recognizable and part drenched in static.

    My grandmother recently got cancer, seeing her hooked up to machines made me want to cry when I saw her, I don't know how to put this into words but it was depressing to see, and also comforting. The thought of her getting better and thriving kept me from bursting into tears once I saw her, even though I knew it was unlikely. There were so many things I could've payed attention to while I was with her but I never did, I regret it so much. She's always let us take old toys from her basement to our house, and I got many toys from her house, most importantly, Barbies that I played with alone, a lamb plushie that helped me fall asleep when it was dark, and a Christmas dress that no longer fits me. These objects are so important to me and I can't imagine losing them in the middle of the night or just while I'm out of the house, at school, with my mom, anything. I don't want to lose these items, I don't wanna lose the memories of her. I want to cry but I can't, I want to scream but I can't, all I can do is sit and reminisce about her, the stories she told, the times we visited her, the things she gave us, anything. I cling onto those memories like my life depends on it, I want to be happy with her but I feel this constant dread around her and it won't go away, because I know she's going to succumb to death someday, and she won't be with me, but that's ok. It's ok that I'm gonna lose her one day, it's ok that my kids might never meet her, it's ok that I won't have her around me anymore because I'll have those objects in some way, mental or physical. I'll miss her but I'll know that she loved me, and I loved her, I'll know that she tried her best to make me and my siblings happy. I'll feel sad for a little bit but I'll be able to move on, along with everyone else. She'll be with me for as long as I'm alive, as long as I can remember. I don't want to see her die but it will happen, and it's something I need to accept. Writing this helped me so much with dealing with the sadness of possible loss, I feel the need to thank someone for allowing me to do this, but I'm not sure who, but just thank you. Thank you for helping me, and thank you for letting me talk about my worries. Love you, grandma.

      I understand all too well... thought I was going to lose my gram last year. She raised me and I'm in my 30s but I'm not ready for that. I suppose we never are though...
      Gram survived uterine cancer despite the hardships of the hysterectomy and difficulty cancer treatments afterwards but last year she had a bone infection in her spine. She came home rather quickly after surgery, she was able to get up and get to the bathroom on her own and everything! I was trained to give her her antibiotics through her PIC line at home and a nurse and occupational therapist were going to come weekly... but the second Sunday she was home, she couldn't stand up. She had this pain in her hip that was unbearable and she ended up in a rehab for months.
      She didn't have any new hip issues, the pain she already dealt with had just gotten unbearable while her body healed from surgery. But while she was in rehab there were various issues... Random UTIs, cognitive reactions to certain antibiotics and pain medication, depression, anxiety, and one night she woke up from a dream convinced she was late for a wedding and tried to stand from her bed only to have a bad fall afterwards. She told me about the dream a week later, it was crazy all over the place, but she was on a lot of medication and seeing things so I can't tell how much she really dreamed. She'd have these lucid moments where she knew how she sounded and clearly thought she was developing dementia. I kept reminder her we all get loopy on those kinds of meds but I also knew that some elderly people develop dementia in reaction to some antibiotics. She didn't need to know that though, it would've just made it all so much harder.
      Thankfully she recovered, though she's not as steady on her feet as she used to be and she's more forgetful. She's not out of touch with reality at all for now. She's very scared that it's happening and all I can do is tell her how forgetful I've always been and no one remembers everything after 7 1/2 decades of life - that's a lot of life to remember!
      It's hard to know if she's more forgetful from the stress or if she's in those beginning stages but for now I still have her lucid and here. I'm not ready for that to change, but I have to focus on what we have now and spend time with her. She likes to watch me play video games, it's like more interactive TV for her and she loves farming sims as much as I do. I try to spend as much time with her as I can, though I'm dealing with my own health issues (sleep apnea, in the process of getting a CPAP so I can actually get restful sleep) that have made that more difficult lately. Hopefully I'll be better soon so I can watch her soap opera, share a smoke on the back porch, and play games for her regularly again.
      It's so scary though. In spite of all our family struggles and generational trauma, she's the closest thing to a mother I have.
      Now I feel like thanking you. It does help to put it out into the world, to stop hanging onto it and share it with others even for just a little bit. So thank you, internet stranger. Sending my love💕

      My grandma died when I was turning six due to cancer. Obviously, me, a dumb six year old, was not as sad about it as I am now. Especially her cookie recipe, and everything she did. Hope I'll see her in the afterlife with those cookies. I had been in the hospital the day she died. I had been to her funeral. I saw the coffin. I should've stayed home but my parents were fine with it.

    I listenened to this when i was going through a really bad time. My depression was taking over at a fast pace and gave it a listen during Winter, when my mental health always goes down to suicidal levels of bad. Even worse is i was on my 3rd day of not eating anything and listened to this during the night time which made things much worse.
    When i finished it, it made me realize i shouldn't take life for granted. I started trying to better myself and now im doing okay. I might listen to the album again some day but it really left a huge impact on me.

It feels so weird to not be depressed all the time, and part of me wants that back. "Depression is like a wet blanket. Its cold and heavy, but you keep it on. Why? Because you know that it will warm up eventually, and taking it off will take effort and leave you cold and uncovered, even if only for a little while. So you deal with the discomfort just so that you dont have to deal with a new kind of discomfort".

    The album being discussed in this video is downright terrifying for anyone, but especially me. I'm 21, and have always had heavy struggles with my memory, even at a young age. To see what it could be like if I do end up with dementia or Alzheimer's brings me such anxiety and genuine terror for the future. I can only hope to live a life well enough to grieve fully as it fades.

    My uncle was diagnosed with dementia a few years ago. He and my Aunt would visit every Christmas to chat and laugh and eat whatever snacks we all made. The last couple visits, he wasn't too different from his usual jolly self, though he did become noticeably more absent-minded and had more difficulty walking up steps or grabbing things right in front of him. About a month ago we were told he had died from heart problems, and we attended his funeral a week later. It was very sad, but on some level I was relieved, for lack of a better word. I didn't wish my uncle was dead of course; rather, I saw it as a small mercy that he was mostly lucid in his last moments, rather than spending god knows how many months or years slowly losing his memories and sense of self. I know the last stages of dementia are utterly soul-crushing both to witness and endure, and I don't think anyone would have wanted my uncle to go through that.

Dementia is literally the WORST way to go and literally nearly ANY other method is less miserable and more humane.

    I am also legitimately AMAZED at the fact that some of the most well-known parts in EATEOT haven't been mentioned at all, if nearly *at most.* And to that, I want to say a HUGE thank you, dude. I mean it.
    Seeing the whole sample finding process be finally properly explained was also just- Man, I don't even have words for this. In my time in the Caretaker community, I've also made friends with a few of the sample finders, and seeing them be mentioned here for their sheer hard work, be it directly or indirectly, just makes me so proud of them.
    All this time you have dedicated to this video was entirely worth it.
    (ps: i may or may not have been one of the inspirations of "Nowhere At A Different Millennium", and seeing it also be mentioned really made a good chunk of my day)

    My grandfather had Parkinson's disease. As morbid as it is, I'm glad he passed. His condition was slow, yet rapid. It slowly took his motor functions over 10 years, reducing him from a proud, tall man of 86 years to a bedridden, gasping, suffering husk of what he once was. Even when the condition progressed, before he was bedridden, his memory was clear as day. Despite the fact that he had hallucinations due to Parkinson's, he could very accurately describe events in his life with little effort or help. When he went to stay at a hospital, his health took a massive decline, leaving him bedridden, gasping, silent, suffering as his organs shut down. The last thing he'd said before it left him dying was "I can't, Linda. I can't". He always was a tough man. Never heard or saw him cry in my youth, but when the disease progressed, I watched him cry 2 or 3 times. Once was when he said to me, "You kids shouldn't have to take care of me", another when he was crying out to my grandmother who wasn't there (she's alive, but COVID only let 2 people visit, those two being me and my sister). I still remember my grandmother breaking down when me and my dad went to break the news of his passing that morning. She saw me and smiled. She thought I came for a visit. Then, she saw my dad, and she just repeated" "No, no" as my dad went to comfort her. He passed November 12, 2021. The part I find funny or interesting is that he lasted through Veteran's Day, passing in his sleep early the next morning. He had served in Vietnam in his young adulthood. Rest in peace, Conley. I hope you're still waiting for me.

    I know the album is a living portrait of dementia... It is raw and cruel and beautiful at the same time... However, as you said at first, it hits differently for everyone. My best friend passed away so many years ago... We were still children, and she was suddenly diagnosed with cancer. I was never allowed to see her at the hospital, my mom told me that children were not allowed to visit, so she never took me when she was joining her mother for visiting day. The day she passed away, I was very sick, and I remember seeing things around me like I wasn't there, like I was a person watching a movie from the outside. I remember my mother telling me that my best friend died and yelling at me not to cry, me crying out of rage and sadness, but still numb inside... Many years later, when I was supposed not to mourn anymore, I was told the things my best friend lived during her last days, and it hurts so bad like I knew I had to be there for her... Listening to EATOF brought me to picture her last days before she was diagnosed with cancer, and picture her last days at the hospital... All those emotions brought back to life: anger, frustration, and finally, acceptance... Thank you very much Pad Chennington for making this video and #maytheballroomremaineternal

    My grandma passed away very recently and I had stayed with her my whole life. So, I was there to witness ever stage of the dementia setting in. Although I'll never be able to understand the receiving end of what that was like I feel this album did such an amazing job at describing it more me. I was able to put myself in her shoes and see how it went from her taking care of me as a child to me taking care of her and eventually just watching her lying on her bed unable to talk and barely look around anymore. Although there was a sort of relief when she finally went. That through all that pain she was finally able to rest. I definitely feel like the process of going through dementia is more terrifying than death it's a long process of rot and just surviving unable to process what's happening around you and things or people that you see everyday make less and less sense until you just have to sit there and let the world go by without you, so quickly you don't bother to question it while it still remains the most frustrating thing you have to spent the rest of your life with.

      👃 It is my twenty years experience, so take this thing seriously. The doctors will never recommend you this thing because they don't know this thing. It is not the knowledge from books but a knowledge from the long experience of practical. (why mostly rich people die with covid 19 why death ratio is lesser in poor country) Make your diet very very strict for some days if you get affected with covid 19 and you needn't to be frightened of any type covid 19 virus or it's variants. Read this phrase throughly it is my twenty years experience of the hell of pneumonia (when the doctors become helpless and the all medicines are worthless. What would you do then. The medicines are not capable to treat the primordial pneumonia.
      How they can treat this dreadful covid 19 caused pneumonia , there is only one thing, it is your body who has to fight with covid 19 or covid 21, so be prepared for that. And I make you sure on it that a human body has the capability to kill this virus, no matter how many forms does it change itself. Let's get ready to do so. ) I have lived the hell of pneumonia and inflammation so far. And the doctors prescribed me only things those were, antibiotic. They prescribed me more strong antibiotics when the first one stopped working . When all the antibiotics stopped working I had no way but controlling my eating habits to control the severe inflammation and excessive mucus problems . Because ayurveda described this thing. It is a natural thing to treat pneumonia and inflammation with no side effects.
      All the friuts, dry fruits, most of the grains [except wheat, gram or cheakpe] , all the lentils (except pigeon food or masoor dal) [ pigeon food means masoor dal not tuwar dal so don't be confused and avoid tuwar dal because it is inflammatory too] and all the vegetables(except green leaves ) and all types of vegetables oil(except mustard oil ) act like poison for a very sensitive pneumonia patient or a covid 19 affected patient(only in some cases because some patients' body act overwhelmingly on covid 19 virus ) because these things are most inflammatory and the main causes to make humans body inflamed . So avoid these things for some days if you get affected with covid 19.
      Covid 19 may affect you and you can face all types of it's symptoms , but it never be fatal for you if you follow these natural tips for some days after being getting affected. If you have a covid 19 positive test, control your eating habits for some days and take only all types of meaty foods( meat and eggs ) and you can use mustard oil or pure butter clarified to cook them otherwise eat them grilled or boiled. You can also have all types of pure dairy products(which are made from pure animal milk ) , white sugar, sea salt, red chili powder,all types of green leaves like spinach and lettuce,tea, coriander powder or leaves, , turmeric, products that made from pure wheat, masoor dal(pigeon food),Gram(checkpeae ), Mustard oil. Avoid all types of vegetables, Either it is a green vegetable or a root (besides green leaves) and avoid cabbage and cauliflower . It is a very strict diet plan but with this diet you can achieve zero inflammation within 10 to 15 days. To meet your daily needs of vitamin c you can take a half of lemon(lemon acts differently when it is consumed with different foods, with the suggested foods it never be a cause for inflammation ) per day. If you follow this tip for some days, covid 19 or it's variants never never be fatal for you in any case .
      Note - A human body does take 15 days to produce antibodies and it is the natural way to avoid the over inflammation. It is my twenty years experience over pneumonia and inflammation. it's been two years I won't face neither pneumonia nor inflammation. I have been surviving on a very simple and a very strict diet.

      👃 This series of recordings is one of the most profound experiences of my life. I'm 60 and it has managed to tease out stuff I didn't know was there. Many many tears flowed but it was worth it.
      I didn't listen to the whole thing, and I don't think I'll ever have the time to, but I have skipped through to some parts and I'm in tears.
      My Grandma never had dementia, just the usual forgetfulness that comes with age. She had lived through the second World War, beaten breast cancer and cared for many kids, grandkids and great grand kids in her lifetime
      I can't imagine how awful it must be, knowing somewhere in the lifeless body of a late stage dementia patient is someone that you knew. Your mother. Your Grandmother etc. I'm thankful that my grandma was spared from something like that, and I can't put into words the level of sympathy I feel for those who suffer/know someone that is suffering through dementia.

    Thank you so, so much for this video. I was personally introduced to Caretaker by the algorithm around September 2020. This was around a month after my grandmother, at age 78, was diagnosed with dementia (never found out if it was alzheimers or a similar disease). It didn't make the disease any less sad - having your name forgotten by someone you've known your entire life is nothing short of heart-shattering - but it helped me sympathize with what she was going through, and made it a little bit easier. The first time I listened to Everywhere, I listened to it the entire way through. Since my grandmother was born in the years where these songs were popular, I was curious if she'd recognize the songs from EATEOT. The last time I saw her in person, she recognized Heartaches and Goodnight My Beautiful. She described A2 as "calming."
    After COVID resurged, I didn't see her again. She died in May from a unrelated medical issue around late stage 2 to early stage 3. It's been a rough journey, but EATEOT - and by extension, the rest of Leyland's discography - were ways for me to get a semblance of what she was going through, and albums like Sadly, The Future Is No Longer What It Was helped me grieve. Not once in my life has music moved me as much as this album did, and not once in my life have I been entranced by an artist's discography more. This video is a love letter to everything Caretaker and Leyland Kirby related, and I can't express how happy I am to be able to finally watch this video. The wait was absolutely worth it. Thank you so much.

    Stage one, for me personally, is about an old person looking back at the old days and remembering their youth. 'Burning memory', and other songs, having altered versions of themselves throughout the album represent the main character forgetting memories and grasping onto whatever piece of the memory they can find.

    When I first listened to this album, it really negatively affected me. I think the thing that was scaring me and fueling the paranoia and depression in me is the fact that my mom is probably going to be like this someday; she may not even remember me at some point in her life. I might just be a total stranger to her, and the thought of that is honestly terrifying. Her choices in life and genetics make her more likely to experience Dementia later in life.
    But now, after putting it down and then picking it back up after a little while, I’ve come to a realization; just because my mom may forget me someday due to Dementia, that doesn’t mean that I’ll forget. I’ll be able to remind her, and tell her stories of her life and mine. It’s helped me to kind of live my life in the moment, making as memories as i can, so i have as many stories to tell as i can.
    I don’t know if that makes a lot of sense, but i do hope that my words can comfort someone else who may be experiencing the same feelings that i have.

    i’d like to revisit this album. the first time i listened to it, my grandfather was very much still alive.
    i lived with him almost my whole life after my parents had gotten divorced. he always took his time showing me his hobbies, and i wouldn’t be a painter today without him passing his knowledge on to me. his physical health declined over time. one fall became another, and another. his cane became two, and then a walker, and then a wheelchair, and then a bed. it was a slow decay over a long period of time but when i sat and thought about it it all felt so fast. he stopped talking as much, he stopped eating as much as he wanted to (which was scary- the man loved food) and he eventually lost the ability to keep painting. some of the last gifts i’d ever made for him were paintings. landscape paintings, just like the ones he’d make or the ones we’d watch bob ross paint at 2 am on cassette tapes on that huge block of a television in the kitchen when i was 4-6 years old.
    he always told me that i was a good person, to do the right thing, and that he loved me. i haven’t always been a good person or done the right things, but i want to do my best to keep trying.
    im still a painter, but i have yet to work in his studio yet. i miss him so dearly. i want to know how my interpretation of the album and impressions would change.

    You should talk about that new genre called Liminal Wave sometimes in the future, greatly influenced by that majestic and profound release of Kirby...
    But by far, my most favorite take on EATEOT might be the nightcore bass boosted remix of the release, that really adds something and gives this impression of "Speedrunning memory loss to the point you actually forget you forgot".

I dearly hope everyone who listens to EATEOT gives James’ other albums a chance.

    I discovered everywhere at the end of time a few days ago. I haven't had the will to go through the entire 6 hour long album, because of how haunting it sounds but I have been watching a few videos on the subject of the album, such as this one. Everywhere at the end of time for me is a very confusing experience. I myself suffer from ADHD and depression. Both of those can make it hard to remember things at times and with my ADHD it can often heighten my emotions and the speed of my thought process. Anxiety often goes along with depression, and it just makes me think about the future. My own issues already with forgetting things constantly just makes me worry that depending on the future, I may end up in a situation where EATOT reflects what I am or will become. It also kind of hurts me because of the kind of slow burn of the album. I recently lost my grandmother to cancer as well. She had it back since 2014. If she knew...she didn't tell anybody. She ended up dying to the sepsis from the cancer this year. 4:00 in the morning. I'm still... I would argue, in the denial stage. It still feels weird and unfathomable to know she's gone. I know she is... it, just feels unreal. While it's not the exact subject that this album is supposed to represent.. to me this album can also symbolize the breaking down of the body. This is just me. it just makes me think of all the pain that my grandma went through. I miss her.
