Lisa Gerrard's latest album release (first week of July in the UK, this week in the USA), will be her soundtrack to the film Whale Rider. On the evidence of the samples available on the website, it's her usual kind of stuff (where "usual kind of stuff" means hypnotic, soothing, mesmerising, eclectic, and so on).

Oh cool! I didn't know she was still recording stuff. I saw her at Islngton's Union Chapel just after the first solo album came out, and I hadn't heard much since.

Plenty of info at www.4ad.com covering the various things that she's been involved in since, the most high-profile of which is the award-winning Gladiator soundtrack.

Dead Can Dance's Toward The Within live performance was released on DVD a few months ago too. Been meaning to add that to my collection. I borrowed the video from the local library a couple of years ago not really knowing what to expect. I ended up glued to the screen, amazed at how good it was.
