Opeth vs Porcupine Tree is what it's going to be. If I'm wrong, free hot dogs for everyone.

I thought the tie breaker was determined by album ratings?

I'm not a big fan of either, but if I were a betting man, I'd suppose we'll be seeing Porcupine Tree vs. Opeth in the final round (incidentally, I'm not a huge fan of either of them either, but I digress).  Good luck to the winner!

Come on Riverside. They have no chance.
Just give it all an hour by the concrete lake.

It is. And it came as a shock to me as well. Do the math if you don't believe me.
 
Riverside: 521,00 avg
Opeth: 472,40 avg

It's possible DT is neither as good nor as popular as you have been led to believe.

A vote for Riverside is a vote against Opeth.  Evil Smile

Opeth all the way! Until they reach the final against PT...

Almost no other band is as versatile and as great in different areas of the musical spectrum as Opeth.

Opeth, though this was probably the closest matchup of the whole tornament for me.
Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005
