YOUR NEW RELEASES: Just in time for Halloween, horror-rockers Slipknotwill be at the front of the line for chart treats next week. The great Neil Diamond, meanwhile, is set for a strong bow with an appreciably gentler, though no less autumnal, new album. That said, Christmas is already in the air—and there’s something for every stocking in the latest assortment of Q4 releases. A cappella fivesome Pentatonix are truly bringing the frankincense and myrrh, as their Yuletide full-length gets off to a holly, jolly start. Here are this week's key debuts:

Slipknot (Roadrunner) 100-110k
Neil Diamond (Capitol) 70-80k
Logic (Def Jam) 65-70k
T.I. (Grand Hustle/Columbia) 65-70k
Little Big Town (Capitol Nashville) 30-35k
Pentatonix (RCA) 28-32k
Annie Lennox (Blue Note) 24-27k
Aretha Franklin (RCA) 21-24k
Susan Boyle (SYCO/Columbia) 16-18k

Speaking of Halloween, if you’re visited by a trick-or-treater who bears a striking resemblance to a slovenly music-trade editor of a certain age, it’s just a kid in an adorable costume. Fill up that bag, stat. (10/22a)

T.I.’s 9th studio album Paperwork is in stores now and getting mixed reviews from listeners. Despite achieving hit songs on the radio with ‘No Mediocre’ and ‘About The Money’, Tip’s new LP is set to sell 65-70k copies only. With his stature and fan base, this number is a little disappointing.

According to HDD, Logic’s debut album Under Pressure, released through VMG/Def Jam is also projected to sell 65-70k units in the first week at retail, something he will be quite proud of.

Which album did you like better?
