PT, by a long shot...
He neither drank, smoked, nor rode a bicycle. Living frugally, saving his money, he died early, surrounded by greedy relatives. It was a great lesson to me -- John Barrymore

A few days ago I just wrote how I rather not have/use the "Both" option in this sort of polls. I just have to use it now.

I love Marillion so it breaks my heart to vote against them, but Porcupine Tree are my favorite band (along with about a dozen other bands). I like SW's solo work, except his last, but none of it grabs me the way PT does. That said, Marillion has many incredible moments (Easter, Ocean Cloud, Forgotten Sons, etc.)

Can't believe I voted FOR Porcupine Tree...
Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.

Anyway you want to do it, say by separating the early, mid and late periods, I still can't separate the two bands, so it's both equally for me, even though their music is very different.

I do not care about Porcupine Tree at all, and for Marillion, I do like what they release untill mid last decade, the rest for me are forgettable releases

Two bands I really don't "get." I've enjoyed their music (to a degree) but find both very bland. That said, I do like Steven Wilson's solo output much better.

Me too. I could never get into PT. But I listened to Clutching at Straws the other day and it's fuсking amazing! So I guess my vote goes to Marillion.
