User Album Review
Russel Warfield of Drowned in Sound gave this album a 7 out of 10, writing that Byrne "brilliantly subverts this old truism" of succeeding through directness that makes "an immersive listen with absolutely no breaks from its fragile atmosphere; a beautiful and beguiling record, full of space, absence, and mixed emotions".[1] In Loud and Quiet, Chris Watkeys rated this release a 5 out of 10, writing that while Byrne "has created something beautiful... something with a shred of originality she has not".[2] Pitchfork Media's Jayson Greene scored Rooms with Walls and Windows a 7.4 out of 10, recommending that listeners use headphones to appreciate the softer sounds in the songs, which resembles ambient music.
