SACRAMENT

Sacrament is the album where it all came together for White Willow, with the compositional structures of the songs matching soft and mystical folk sections with more forthright prog rock outbursts. The real key to making these two halves form a cohesive whole is the consistent atmosphere between the two, which draws deeply from the dark waters of gothic rock in order to bridge the gap between the quiet and loud sections. Like The Violet Hour before them, White Willow explore a territory existing partway between Pink Floyd and All About Eve, and they bring back treasure nobody ever expected to find in such an apparently cold and barren landscape.
