The single was released as a standard CD, including three bonuses: one of five possible trading cards, a URL that led to a downloadable wallpaper and screensaver, and a Lead 2003 Winter Campaign postcard.

While the music video was released for syndication to the public upon the single's release, it was not available for the public to purchase until their DVD/VHS release Lead Movies 2 in March 2005.

"Get Wild Life" was written and composed by musical composer Shinji Tamura, with the rap lyrics written by KATSU. Shinji Tamura had previously written the music for Lead's prior single Funky Days!, and is most famous for his works in the Tales of series. KATSU had worked with Lead since their debut Manatsu no Magic. "Field of Soul" was written and composed by Fukanuma Motoaki, with the lyrics by Emi Inaba. Fukanuma Motoaki is best known as the solo unit Mellowhead, who began the project after the hiatus of the band PLAGUES, of which Motoaki was the vocalist and guitarist.

To help promote the single, "Get Wild Life" was used as the main theme song to the 2004 film Kamachi, which was based on the life of poet and painter Kamachi Yamada, who died in 1977 at the age of 17.

Despite being the main theme, the song was omitted from the film's official soundtrack.
