Now VDGG or perhaps Antonius Rex versus King Crimson....there's a real kicker.
They're a good match, as they're two of the biggest ever prog bands from the 1970s and usually amongst the two most respected by both the purists and the average music listener. VDGG are a good comaprison to KC but vocalist Peter Hammill is not always everybody's cup of tea.
