The Initial Friend EP was the first release put out by Los Angeles–based rock band Rilo Kiley. It was initially a self-titled release that was put out by the band independently in 1999.[1] They re-pressed it with altered artwork and track-listing in 2000, and then did the same thing again for a third pressing in 2001. All three releases commonly sell on eBay for between $250–400 and are fairly rare.

"Frug" and "85" were included in the soundtrack to the Christina Ricci film Desert Blue,[2] which led to the band's heightened popularity and eventual signing to a record label.

"Frug" was later included as the final song on the band's B-sides and rarities compilation, Rkives.
