Saga is not really heavy! More kind of Pop-Prog, but overall I prefer them to Voivod. Not that I donīt like the latter one, just don`t know them that well. Only have one album. From Saga I have around 10 albums and I have seen them live.

Saga is in MMA so in overall consenus i would say Saga to be a heavy band, as they are in MMA, they are a heavy band.

I wouldn't think of comparing the two, but I'll vote for Saga because my name is quite the same
