{"product_id":"white-willow-ex-tenebris-vinyl-lp-blue","title":"Ex Tenebris - Vinyl LP (Blue)","description":"Ex 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. Overall, 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 Willow's first step towards something more original than the first album's retro-styled psych-folk.This 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.","brand":"White Willow","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46973772890287,"sku":"7090008313441","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshized.com\/products\/white-willow-ex-tenebris-vinyl-lp-blue","provider":"Freshized","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
