Reviewers also praised the album's eclectic mix of musical styles, as well as the vocal performances of lead singers Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig.
The album's cover artwork is a 1964 painting by Belgian pop artist Evelyne Axell, titled Ice Cream.
In selecting the image, Wolfe and Laessig drew inspiration from other iconic, provocative album covers including Sticky Fingers and Nevermind.
In a review for Paste, Hilary Saunders wrote that the album was successful in "reintroducing retro girl-group swag to the 21st century at a time when it's most needed" and went on to call it "one of the most complete indie pop LPs this year".
[3] Wildewoman also appeared on a number of year-end best album lists, including those compiled by Bob Boilen of NPR's All Songs Considered[6] and the music staff at Amazon.com.
