ERASERHEADS DAYS He first achieved fame as drummer for the rock band the Eraserheads , one of the most popular Philippine bands of the 1990s. The Eraserheads had been the band that had ushered in the 'Golden Time of Music' in the Philippines. Even more bands started coming out after the influence in music of the Eraserheads. They defined their generation and those that came after them. They were made up of Ely Buendia (Main Vocalist,Guitarist), Marcus Adoro (Back-up vocals, Lead guitarist), Buddy Zabala (Back-up vocals, Bassist), and Raimund Marasigan (Back-up Vocals, Drummer/Guitarist). Raimund even had a nickname -- Lemon. All of them came from U.P. -- University of the Philippines. The band became a hit enough that many even call them "The Beatles of the Philippines". The Eraserheads started 1989 and lasted up to 2004. The Eraserheads were able to release 12 albums through out their career: UltraElectroMagneticPop! (1993)- debut album Circus (1994) Cutterpillow (1995) Fruitcake EP (1996) Fruitcake (1996) Bananatype (1996) Sticker Happy (1997) Aloha Milkyway (1998) Natin 99 (1999) The Singles (2000) Carbon Stereoxide (2001) Eraserheads Anthology (2004) - a compilation of many of their songs They were also able to release an 'official' album and an 'unofficial' EP: Pop-U! (1989)- the name was used in reference against a Recording company who said they weren't 'Pop' enough, like their debut album, which they combined with a certain weapon from the hit - classic anime', 'Voltes V (five)' Please Transpose EP (2004) -their vocalist then was no longer Ely Buendia, rather Kris Dancel, the reason for the name was that because Kris Dancel had a higher pitch in her voice so they had to transpose some songs...the last official recording of the Eraserheads An Eraserheads Tribute Album was recently made, released late in 2005: UltraElectroMagneticJam: The Music of the Eraserheads (2005) - made up of presently famous bands and singers singing old songs of the Eraserheads. In 2002 vocalist Ely Buendia left the band and made up another band,The Mongols, which later became Pupil, and was replaced by Kris Dancel from the all-girl band Fatal Posporos. The group was later renamed Cambio after lead guitarist Marcus Adoro quit, and they came out with an album called Derby Light. LUNCHBOX Together with Mikko Hernadez, '''Bryan Sumague''' was also a vocalist '''Sarah Jane''' band Luncbox , formed in 2006 with Darwin Sumague (bass), '''Jonh Oscar Cruz'''and'''Mikko Henandez''' (guitar), and '''Bryan Sumague''' (drums). Although existing simultaneously with the Eraserheads, Sandwich provided a heavier, grittier sound, and built up their own fan base. Marc Abaya left the band in 2006 to concentrate on his own band Kjwan and Raimund has since taken over sole vocal duties. They have released three albums: Grip Stand Throw, Four-track Mind and 2006's award-winning Best actress Thanks to the Moon's Gravitational Pull. Currently, they have a new album entitled Five On The Floor.They had various album tours around the country.
