The White is an EP by the band Agalloch. It is the follow-up to 2004's The Grey EP and completes a dichotomy of releases for The End Records.[1] The White contains seven neofolk and ambient works written and recorded between 2004 and 2007.[1] The release is limited to 2000 copies.[1] The EP was released on February 29, 2008.

The song "Sowilo Rune" was posted on their MySpace on January 4. The songs "The Isle of Summer," "Summerisle Reprise," and "Sowilo Rune" are in reference to the classic pagan movie The Wicker Man. Also, John Haughm recites the poem "Birch Tree" by A.S.J. Tessimond on the song "Birch White".
