Drill was the first commercial release of Radiohead, debuting on the UK charts at #101 on 5 May 1992. It is considered a rarity amongst Radiohead fans, and is not commonly available. "Thinking About You" was taken from the band's Manic Hedgehog demo tape, whilst "You" was a newer version; "Prove Yourself", "Thinking About You" and "You" were re-recorded for Pablo Honey in 1993, the band's first full-length album. All tracks on this EP are demo versions and were recorded at the Courtyard Studio in Oxon. The band where still called On A Friday when the songs for this ep were recorded; they changed their name to Radiohead the following month. Produced and engineered by Chris Hufford and mixed by Timm Baldwin.

"Prove Yourself" is notable for its U2-esque chord changes and unvarnished emotional vocals. "Stupid Car" is a slower song, almost a ballad, and the first of many dealing with Thom Yorke's distrust of vehicles since he and his girlfriend Rachel were involved in a car crash.
