A stairway to the stars, by The Caretaker

A stairway to the stars

by The Caretaker

supported by

scarlet vixen Serene and thought provoking, one of my favorite early works. Favorite track: A stairway to the stars.

thegreenpig321 There aren't enough words in the English language to describe this album. It taps into regions of the human psyche that are long to be discovered by man. This album to me reaches far and wide; from the dysphorias of life to the small glimpses of hope and happiness dotted throughout the small places that you never bother to look. Keep on doing what you do King. Favorite track: Date with an angel.

pixelperfectbc I love the entirety of this album with all my heart, but the cathedral tracks just call out to me with a texture and atmosphere like no other. Favorite track: Friends past re-united.

Great for studying, reading, and thinking. It's like looking out of the window on a rainy day, somewhere far away in the countryside. Calming, lonely, and beautiful. Hakr0Cat

10/10 of album in my books. It makes me feel like I'm drifting off into the depths of deep space, passing constellations, watching stars die and then reborn, as if I am time itself. Simply waiting to be swallowed by a black hole, and into the beauty of the unknown. Hakr0Cat
