You can actually listen to Justin Timberlake's new album now

The singer's first record in six years, 'The 20/20 Experience', is now streaming via iTunes.

Justin Timberlake will release his first album in six years later this week, much to the world’s collective relief – and, to make the wait easier, he’s made it available to stream via iTunes today.

The songs on ‘The 20/20 Experience’ are, on average, around seven minutes long, a trademark Timberlake move that means the whole listening experience is a rich and immersive one. Not to mention, there’s plenty of percussive input from Timbaland and orchestral swells making the record a suitably triumphant-feeling one – though the jury is out on whether this is an apt follow-up to 2006’s arty pop opus, ‘FutureSex/LoveSounds.’
