"The group took cues from the open-ended improvisation of classic jam band acts like Phish and the Grateful Dead, but also incorporated dual-guitar wizardry on par with Television or, in their more Southern-fried moments, the Allmann Brothers ... Nightcap at Wits' End is the most complete articulation of their wide-reaching creative range, and stands as the their most focused and engaging work to date".

"Where GP's last album, One Step Behind, was almost entirely one impressively epic 30-minute song, Nightcap at Wits' End follows more of a traditional album structure - 12 songs, 50 minutes -- though Side 2 is made of two sets of interconnected song cycles ... Nightcap at Wits' End is one of the best "2020" titles of 2020 so far. This nightcap goes down easy, but for the album in a nutshell head to "Painting a Vision That Carries," a seven-minute track that closes Side 1, featuring delicately plucked acoustics, thick woven harmonies, groovy basslines, a big chorus and, yes, plenty of noodles".
