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.

I can't believe nobody has properly explained this.... anyway, "anthem", when used stylistically, means theme. For instance, if a venue, such as a dance club, has a contiguous design feel, it can be said that it sticks to an anthem.
Of course it can also mean a song that is used to convey underlying values, principles, spirit, commraderie, etc., eg. a national anthem.
