Here's a list of albums that are so obscure it's almost a crime. The list is ordered so that albums scoring high in both obscurity and quality are near the top.

WORK IN PROGRESS. Some of the albums ending up here may already be "Metal Storm approved", but this might be used for broader reference.

1.Skein - Of Wings Unfolding

2.Oddland - The Treachery Of Senses

3.Turbid North - Orogeny

4.Chaos Divine - The Human Connection

5.Anthriel - The Pathway
