Some EPs out there are really just throw away tracks, and others are just demo tracks, but there are some EPs that are pure gold. These EPs are albums that despite lacking in song count, lack nothing in quality, and become an essential part of the bands discography, these are the EPs that I believe belong in that last category. These appear in no specific order.

1.Apothys - Advent: Doom

2.Disillusion - The Porter

3.Disillusion - Three Neuron Kings

4.Dream Theater - A Change Of Seasons

5.Ensiferum - Dragonheads
