Two bands that I've tried, over and over and over again, to like... but they just don't click for me.  Still, I'd take Duda if I was forced to take one or the other.

I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".

Not a fan of Opeth and never heard of Duda...............although I like the song Don't Call Me Duda.  Abstain  ;D

Mikael will always be one of my favorites.. I've tried Riverside, but they weren't my thing.

For those that don't recognize the name of Duda, he fronts Riverside.

two of my favorite bands here.  This is tough . . .
Winger would be better!

I vote C: None of the above. ;D
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

Love both bands but Mikael gets my vote.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

Duda would win against almost anyone else in my mind. But I'm going with Mikael.
