Not to be confused with the 80’s minimal synth band called Anti-Matter.
1) Antimatter, a UK semi-acoustic rock band, is currently the project of long time member Mick Moss. The project was formed in 1998 by Duncan Patterson (former bassist/songwriter of Anathema) and Mick Moss. The pair released three albums together - “Saviour”, “Lights Out” and “Planetary Confinement”. Shortly after the completion of “Planetary Confinement” Patterson left to start another band called Íon. Moss continued and released the project’s fourth album “Leaving Eden” with Anathema guitarist Danny Cavanagh, following with 2009’s Live@An Club, released on Moss’ own label Music In Stone. Most recently Moss has overseen a 10 year retrospective multi-disc release entitled ‘Alternative Matter’.
The earlier Antimatter albums, “Saviour” and “Lights Out”, focused on melodic vocal lines (often by guest female vocalists), dark electronica and balanced on the borderline between gothic and trip hop. “Planetary Confinement” marked the start of a shift towards more of an acoustic based melancholic rock sound. “Leaving Eden” - now with Mick Moss as the only songwriter and singer - continues in this direction and also gives electric guitars a more prominent role. The result is a heavier sounding album, with little trace of the ambient sound of early Antimatter.
Formation (1998-99)

i'm stuck between to audycja o życiu pomiędzy znaczeniami.o wędrówce w stronę zachodzącego słońca poprzez dźwięki progresywne, chropowato-gładkie, agresywno-łagodne (czasami nawet łagodno-agresywne!), kanciasto-zaokrąglone, szybko-powolne... Serdecznie zapraszam :)

Nice band. Duncan gave me his new 'Lights Out' LP for free, after some acoustic gig in 2005, but I didn't know they have already released 3-4 records!! Gotta check some more.
