AS AN ERASERHEAD During his role as an Eraserhead, Adoro only had a few contributions when it comes to songwriting. He would compose one song per album and were usually track fillers, like ''"Punk Zappa"'' in "Circus" and ''"Southsuperhiway"'' in "Natin99". The most contributions he had ever given to the band was in the album, "Carbon Stereoxide". He was a member of the Pi Omicron Fraternity in UP Diliman. Fans of the E-heads often describe Marcus as the funniest member of the band, with a really absurd sense of humor. Jessica Zafra, the band's manager during their first U.S. Tour in 1997, recalled that one of the four was getting on her nerves for constantly yelling out ''"Putang ina mo!"'' ("Your mother's a slut!"). She was probably talking about Adoro. OTHER PROJECTS After the band released their 8th and final album, "Carbon Stereoxide" in 2001, Adoro started working on a solo project called "Kamonkamon", which tells the adventures of his pet dog with the same name. The compilation of songs were mixed and produced by Marcus himself. Ranging from Electronica , Dance , to Folk , and Alternative Music , most of its tracks were collaborations with artists, such as Pinoy Rock legend Pepe Smith , Dong Abay , and a man named ''Dangwa''. Its EP version, available only in cassettes at a shop called ''Sarabia Optical'', was released in 2002. Adoro stated, in an interview, that part of the reason why he created the project was to make money that will hopefully be enough to buy himself a Surfboard , a sport he picked up during his stay in La Union . Marcus was not the first Eraserhead to produce his own solo project. (in 2000, Ely Buendia released his album, "Wanted: Bedspacer") BELMA EN LUIS In the same year the EP was released, vocalist Ely Buendia, left the band to form version) Adoro, who now goes under the name "Surfernando", along with former bandmates, Buddy Zabala and Raimund Marasigan recently performed for an event at the Millennia Club called "''Marooned''", a production of bands from past and present. Ely was invited to the gig, but did not attend. ''"Batch 88"''[http://www.philmusic.com/netradio/specials/eheads/batch88.asx ,from "Belma en Luis", was one of the songs that was jammed by the trio. |
