Ah 1990's..this is the time were the music scene here in the Philippines are very healthy! Alternative band's are coming out like a mushroom. On posters, radio, tv commercials, movies.. it's music everywhere! Well I guess because in that era there is no piracy, that time, music is thriving like a virus in a human body.
Among the top leading virus is the music of ERASERHEADS, it penetrates to the mind and bones of every Filipino youth at that time. Also it easily spread throughout the entire archipelago because it is an airborne type of virus. But unlike any ordinary airborne virus that easily dissipates into the the air, this type virus remains up to now, up to this generation.
Their immortality is basically due to their music that reaches so far back and points so far forward that it succeeds in the realization of present.
Lately Eraserheads craze once again heard in the air. Just like an echo..it goes on and on! Coz they had a reunion concert last month, but sadly on climax of that concert Ely got sick and i don't know the reasons why and the concert was stopped..but according to my sources heheh! the concert last month made it very big, that they didn't even expect it gonna be very successful..so they decided to have part 2 of that concert! And if this Eraserheads reunion concert part 2 will gonna happen, I think its a must see concert for us!
But For me?? the music of Eli, Buddy, Marcus, and Raimund will be in the hearts of every Filipino to this generation and to the next, they made OPM great in any possible way that a Filipino artist could do! They made life simple through their music, they teach us what love is, what a friend is, and what will be our perspective in life is. that..

naalala ko noon, bumili ako ng kopya ng fruitcake na yan in cassette tape format ha ha ha. apat na kanta lang ata ang laman nun e. hay asan na kaya un he he
maybe they're gonna be like APO someday, too! :)
I don't think the reason why the Eraserheads (or just about any other artist at that time) became what it is now or who they are per se is because of the absence/lack of piracy. I'd like to believe it's because Eraserheads became the Eraserheads. I'd like to believe it just is the Eraserheads, no explanations needed.
And more importantly, I think that even if they came out now or during APO's time, they will still be THE Eraserheads :)
I agree with the "they made OPM great", though. Saktong sakto!
anG galing ah!!!!
