Norwegian progressive rock band led by Jacob C. Holm-Lupo, formed in the early 1990s; debut album Ignis Fatuus received critical notice for its atmospheric, folk-tinged symphonic prog.

Review highlights: a misty, somber, gothic atmosphere blended with flutes, mellotron, acoustic guitars, violins and soft female voices. The music mixes Nordic folk and English symphonic progressive styles, with touches of Renaissance flavor and psychedelia. Reviewer names tracks such as "Ingenting" and "The Withering Of The Boughs" as exemplary.

A positive, atmospheric review praises White Willow's debut Ignis Fatuus for its misty, Gothic atmosphere and blend of Nordic folk and English symphonic progressive elements. The review highlights use of mellotron, flutes, acoustic instruments and delicate female vocals. Standout tracks called out include "Ingenting" and "The Withering Of The Boughs." The album is recommended beyond strict genre fans for its charm and personality.

For:Fans of progressive rock, symphonic prog, and Nordic folk-influenced music.

 It is the mist that dominates this work.
