Here’s the top 10 most read artists for December and congrats to Charlotte Martin who topped out with her excellent Orphans EP for being the most viewed post. In the brackets is their position relative to last month and the amount of months they’ve been on the chart.

Lisa Gerrard – New Albums & Scores
Lisa Gerrard is busy in 2008. After releasing a greatest hits last year she returns with a new album and has worked on a few film scores too. The film scores are to Japanese horror film “ichi”, a documentary on the cold war called “Defector” and an Australian film called “Playing For Charlie”.
The new album see’s Lisa collaborate again, this time with Michael Edwards and seem’s to be following another ballad sound. I hope for a return to form for Lisa with this after “The Silver Tree” was very hit and miss with me.
