{"product_id":"white-willow-ex-tenebris-cd","title":"White Willow \"Ex Tenebris\" CD","description":"\u003cp\u003eEx Tenebris is the classic second album from Norwegian prog legends White Willow, originally released in 1997. It was made after the Ignus Fatuus line-up had disbanded. Originally intended to be a solo album by Jacob Holm-Lupo, it turned into a White Willow record when he realized it was going more in a progressive direction than anticipated. The recording was quick and dirty, done on a shoestring budget, but there is some charm to the natural drum ambience and first-takes-only feel of the album.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eOverall, Ex Tenebris ended up being a more stripped-down, somewhat darker album than Ignis Fatuus. No krumhorns or renaissance vocal groups, more electric guitar and synths. The songs range from almost neo-progish mini-epics like Leaving the House of Thanatos, via acoustic balladry (The Book of Love, Thirteen Days) to more overtly gothic stuff like A Strange Procession \u0026amp; A Dance of Shadows. The album has become a bit of a cult favourite with the band’s fans, and was White Willows’s first step towards something more original than the first album’s retro-styled psych-folk.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis re-release was meticulously remastered by the band’s own Jacob Holm-Lupo and is presented with the classic original cover art, for the first time on vinyl. This is the second in a series of six White Willow re-releases on Karisma Records.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhite Willow \"Ex Tenebris\" CD\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e-Officially licensed White Willow merchandise\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e-Jewel Case CD.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"White Willow","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45854697095234,"sku":"bnu1793348182507","price":11.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/1801\/9650\/files\/white-willow-ex-tenebris-cd_1.jpg?v=1793348190","url":"https:\/\/www.mistyorchard.shop\/products\/white-willow-ex-tenebris-cd","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
