Big Drill Car was formed in 1987 while Frank Daly and Mark Arnold were in M.I.A. ; the pair had written some songs that were not M.I.A.-style songs so they got together with some friends (Bob and Danny) and started playing around. Their first shows were a mix of covers (like the Descendents ‘ “I’m Not A Loser” and Dead Kennedys ‘ “Too Drunk to Fuck”) and these new originals songs. After M.I.A. broke up, Big Drill Car entered the studio in 1988 to record the EP Small Block . They were a hard working hard touring band who were rough on their tour vans.
