A neck.nWink
 
Because they strongly remind me my favourite Crims, on the other hand IQ is indifferent band only.

Wow tough choice... If IQ didn't release Frecuency would have been easier for me to pick Anekdoten, but, they did so I can't vote right now
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...

IQ is turning out to be much more stronger than I thought they would. First leaving Opeth in 2nd place on the groups phase. Now, at least for the moment, winning against a strong opponent as Anekdoten. We'll see if they can keep up the good pace. I know that at least John (Mellotron Storm) and SaltyJon will vote for Anekdoten when they show up.

Anekdoten is becoming one of my favorite bands recently.

From Within and Gravity are really great releases. 
That is where my vote shall go.

Hate the outcome ? Are you kidding me ! A little piece of me will die if they lose.  I want to see an Anekdoten versus Anglagard battle. Oh well i must admit i like IQ a lot but if they win i hope Anglagard kicks their ass.Not that i will feel any resentment towards IQ or anything.Wink

Your right, they are surprising me too but it is early(fingers crossed).

I don't really like either one of them, but if it really comes down to it... I need to help my Swedish comrades.

True!  He also loves IQ, though--and I love both, too.  Several of the recent rounds I haven't cared about the participants so I haven't voted.  But here are two bands I love . . . of course that's how it goes.

Anekdoten gets my vote.

Crap.   Why put two such wonderful groups against each other?  Well, I guess in the end "there can be only one"...

I actually just ordered two Anekdoten (From Within and A Time of Day) a couple of days ago.  Have had Vemod, Nucleus and Gravity since fairly soon after their original releases, and love them all.  (Gravity took a bit of getting used so, being so laid back, but now I love it!).

As for IQ, I have all of their studio albums (well, except for Seven Stories...).  Lots of great stuff, but some iffy stuff as well. 

I guess I'll have to go with Anekdoten...
