History YMMV / TheEraserheads

** Perhaps the worst victims are Ely Buendia when he formed his band Pupil and Raimund Marasigan with Sandwich.

* SignatureSong: "Ang Huling El Bimbo" is probably the first song you'd think of when you hear the name; kinda like "Wonderwall" is to Music/{{Oasis}}. The song is even recognizable enough to have [[Theatre/AngHulingElBimbo its own musical]].

* WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs: ''Alapaap'' was largely suspected to be one. "Alapaap" itself translates to "in the clouds", said to be describing the effects of taking hallucinogens. In fact, there was a court case involving a Philippine senator trying to ban the song because "[[OdeToIntoxication it teaches the youth that using drugs is okay.]]"

* FaceOfTheBand: Ely Buendia.

* SignatureSong: "Ang Huling El Bimbo" is probably the first song you'd think of when you hear the name. Enough to have its own musical.

* NightmareFuel: The full-length music video for "Ang Huling El Bimbo," which is difficult to find online. The best-known cut? A beautifully painful music video remarkable for telling its tragic story with cinematic flair when such music videos weren't common in the Philippines yet. The extended version? Features a scene where the song's LostLenore rises from a pile of leaves like a zombie, which those who have seen it have described as just creepy.

* YokoOhNo: Diane Ventura, wife of frontman Ely Buendia, is largely blamed for the split of the Eraserheads, [[MisBlamed even though she actually played no part with it.]]

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: Can be a {{Tearjerker}} for some. At the end of their last reunion concert; ''Eraserheads: The Final Set'', [[spoiler: Buendia set their iconic piano (see main page) on fire, signifying that as with all things, The Eraserheads has to end.]]
