I love Anathema (all era's) but I don't know Anekdoten at all (another big hole in my collection) so I can't vote.

Anathema
When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

Anekdoten

Anathema after Judgement doesn't do much for me.

Anathema were one of the main shape-formers of modern prog/post-progressive, and they did a lot of truly masterpieceful albums. 'Distant Satellites' showed how heartfelt and magnificent can they be also in electronic music.

As for Anekdoten... I love King Crimson's Red for too much to appreciate its pale copy.

Anathema.

Anekdoten are far from essential.

Anekdoten really but I saw Anathema live and it was magical. BOTH 
I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

I don't like Anathema. IMO it's a sad band.

Recently discovered both bands and I've been enjoying them a lot. Both have high rated albums here in the archives and both names begins with "AN" (not important at all LOL)

So which do you prefer?
I look up, I'm almost blinded

by the warmth of what's inside me

and the taste that's in my soul,

but I'm dead inside as I stand alone...
