"Wilderness" comes from The Woods, the seventh Sleater-Kinney album and their first for Sub Pop, released on May 24, 2005. The band wrote it together, and the credits split it three ways: Carrie Brownstein and Corin Tucker on guitars and vocals, Janet Weiss on drums and backing vocals.
Dave Fridmann produced the album at Tarbox Road Studios in Cassadaga, New York, across November and December 2004, and he recorded and mixed this track himself. His aim was to get the band's live sound onto tape, so much of the record was cut live in the room, with the vocals and some guitar parts the only overdubs. Critics lined up behind the album in a big way.
