New Releases

YOUR NEW RELEASES: Ariana Grande will notch her second #1 debut next week, and there will be go-go dancing throughout the land. The diminutive diva will also be a guest host on American Top 40 this weekend (8/30-31). Here are this week’s key debuts:
 
Ariana Grande (Republic) 150-170k
Brad Paisley (Arista Nashville) 50-60k
KEM (Motown) 35-40k
Avenged Sevenfold (Hopeless) 20-25k
G-Unit (G-Unit) 10-12k
Royal Blood (Warner Bros.) 9-11k

Avenged Sevenfold’s release, it should be noted, is the deluxe re-issue of their second studio album, Waking the Fallen. In other rock news, we’re keeping an eye on Brit duo Royal Blood, which is seriously buzzing among fans of alt-rock riffage. (8/27a)
