Musical history

Mick Moss ANTIMATTER Contract Extension And New Album Prog Sphere

Moss began writing music for a solo career in 1995 after numerous disappointments with previous bands, the idea being that no longer could a key member pull out leaving the current project in ruins.

From 96–98 the solo project went through numerous name changes, from ‘The Reptile Brain’, to ‘Heavy Soul’ and eventually ‘Cloud One’. The style of music early on was instrumental with a strong leaning towards rhythmic psychedelic rock/trance. The addition of vocals to Moss’s abilities in 1996 led to a shift in musical direction, where the writing turned to dark, melodic acoustic rock. During this period he wrote and recorded key tracks ‘Over Your Shoulder’, ‘Saviour’, ‘Too Late’ and ‘Angel’ (later re-titled to ‘Angelic’).

Antimatter was formed in 1998 when Duncan Patterson (then of Anathema) approached Moss to record an album with him after hearing Moss's demos which bore a striking resemblance to his own newer material on Anathema's 'Alternative 4' album (neither party had heard the others latest material).

The project was titled 'Antimatter' by Patterson, and would record their debut album in 2000. The album 'Saviour', featured an even split of songs written separately by Patterson and Moss. This method of writing alone and then compiling completed songs into one album would continue for the course of Patterson's involvement in the project.

Patterson decided he’d had enough of Antimatter after the release of the third album ‘Planetary Confinement’. Due to the non-collaborative nature of the previous albums, Moss (with Patterson’s blessing) continued with the projects name, writing and releasing the entirety of the fourth album, ‘Leaving Eden’, and continuing to tour performing Antimatter songs of his own composition.

In 2008, Mick established his own record label ‘Music In Stone’, releasing Antimatter's Live@An Club.

From 2009 – 2010 Moss compiled the 3CD/DVD, 100 page artbook 'Alternative Matter', producing the 30 minute documentary 'The Small Yesterdays'.
