Eraserheads was formed in 1989 by four students from the University of the Philippines taking its name after the David Lynch movie Eraserhead. The group performed regularly at campus gigs and at Club Dredd on Timog Avenue, Quezon City, Metro Manila, a now-defunct club popular in the '90s which served as a breeding ground for many Filipino Alternative Rock acts. The group submitted a demo to RJFM, but were immediately turned down as their music did not fit the classic pop-rock format of the station. Fortunately, BMG Records-Pilipinas snatched them up and released their debut affort "ultraelectromagneticpop" under their newly formed "Musiko" label. Their debut album was comprised mainly of ska-tinged pop hooks layed down on a traditional guitar-bass-drums foundation.

Eraserheads
Isang pulit na nangingikil
Upang may pambili ng beer
Bisikletang paru-paro
Animnapu't walo
Sumemplang sa kanto
Pag may bagyo'y lunod sa luha
Nagbabaha sa kalsada
Isang gabing maulan
Aking napagmasdan
Nagtatakbuhan
Dalawang nakaitim
Isang may hawak na patlim
May galit ang kanyang mukha
Sa pagkidlat ay nawala
Nangyari ay ano kaya
(voiceover first 2 stanzas)
68 dr. sixto antonio ave
Hulog ka ng Langit
Gumising ka na
Isang bulag na motorista
May nabaril sa kalsada
Masagi na ang lola
Huwag lang daw ang auto niya
Lakas tumawa
Tuloy-tuloy ang panaginip
Maghihintay na lang ng jeep
Nakakabulag ang ilaw
Libu-libong sumisigaw
Lumipad ang araw
Di mo na napapansin
Mga naghuhukay sa dilim
Araw-araw, buwan-buwan
Sumisikip na ang daan
Wala ka nangg mapuntahan
Wala ka nang mapuntahan
Hindi malaman kung saan
'Di ko malaman kung saan
