The term anthemic is not strictly a word, yet is used to describe music that has a particular presence to it/atmospheric feel.
In hardcore/punk an anthemic band would be one who have [plentiful] singalongs and a tight, [melodic], and often heavy rhythm section. Bands such as [Bane] and With Honor are a good example of this. -
An occurrence, action, event, or happening that surpasses epic proportions. In order for something to truly be anthemic it must be worthy of songs of [praise] and [glory] written in its [honor].
