    The key to the record’s immersive power is that Cohen knows exactly how to deploy these esoteric touches—every detail is carefully placed in service of the whole. That Cohen is also an in-demand producer is no surprise—the studio is clearly his domain. Paint a Room is evidence of his mastery there. It casts a mysterious spell.

    Cohen uses Paint a Room to circle through a deceptively wide spectrum of ideas and arrangements, organizing his various strange and beautiful sounds in a way that keeps drawing the listener's attention back, like trying to focus your eyes on something just out of view and figure out exactly what you're looking at.

    Though there are no weak links in the 10-song, 30-minute track list, Cohen tucks the album’s finest moment midway into the second half. “Night or Day” is such a catchy, perfectly executed song that it deftly snaps everything into focus, prompting the realization of just how odd and sneakily exploratory Paint a Room can be.
