Description
Eraserheads (sometimes stylized as ERASƎRHEADS or ƎRASƎRHƎADS ) are a Filipino alternative rock band formed in 1989. With a line-up comprising Ely Buendia, Buddy Zabala, Marcus Adoro, and Raimund Marasigan, the band became the most influential and successful in the history of Filipino music. Often dubbed as "The Beatles of the Philippines", they have sold 9 million albums throughout their career and are credited for spearheading a second wave of Manila band invasions, paving the way for a host of Filipino alternative rock bands like Rivermaya.
The band released several singles, albums, and EPs. They achieved commercial success with their third album Cutterpillow (1995), which achieved platinum status several times. They also received the International Viewer's Choice Award (MTV Asia) at the 1997 MTV Video Music Awards in New York, the only Filipino artist to have received the award before the conception of the MTV Asia Awards.
