DOWNLOAD THIS: Q4 BATTLE ROYALE (UPDATE)

A totally fresh crop of new music has swished through the Top Ten albums chart, with the pre-order for Justin Bieber's forthcoming Purpose rocketing straight to #1, followed closely by One Direction, while Pentatonix, Demi Lovato, Troye Sivan, Machine Gun Kelly, and even a gospel collective from Hillsong Church debuting inside the Top Ten this week.

On the singles side, it's all about One Direction, with new single "Perfect" landing right at the top while chart mainstays Drake, Taylor Swift and The Weeknd follow closely behind them. Elle King holds her own with "Ex's & Oh's" and Nashville breakout Thomas Rhett cracks the Top Ten with "Die a Happy Man."
