Like both, but I think Riverside is better. Katatonia recorded many weak albums and new one is just decent in my opinion. From Riverside I don't like the debut only.

Riverside, no question. Katatonia are still a good band who have had a long lasting influence on many different styles of metal and rock... but Riverside are magic.

Riverside.
They are really damn good. Katatonia, while I'll admit I'm no expert, I was never really floored by them. In fact I'm no expert because I never really wanted to listen again! |

Riverside.
Katatonia are more consistent than Riverside, but Riverside's music at its best strikes me as superior. I kind of don't get all the love for early Katatonia (death/doom era); I think there are much more interesting artists in the genre. Night is the New Day is pretty awesome though.

Going with Riverside, but to be honest I'm not very familiar with Katatonia. Pandora plays them for me sometimes, though, and I like what I've heard.
