Antimatter is a band formed 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.
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.
 Xopher Davidson began his experiments in electronic sound from a basis in painting, film, and installation art, mixed with a long-time interest in electronics. While in primary school he learned to construct simple circuits, removing the components from old televisions and playing with step-up transformers. In 1985 the naively extremist project Jesus Wept was formed by James Chandler, John Hong, Will B. Gavin, and Davidson, beginning an era of tape manipulation.
