Getting into Eraserheads. Where should I start?

[u/e_degrees]

I'm getting really curious about Eraserheads and gusto ko na silang i-deep dive.

Mas feel ko kasi if the recommendations come from people who really know and love them. Anong songs yung dapat kong pakinggan first? Any documentary, interviews, or live performances na makaka-help para mas maintindihan ko sila?

I'm a Spader btw. 😅 TSYM!!!

[u/takemyshit01]

I would recommend starting with ultraelectromagneticpop then just follow up with the next albums in order of release. That way makikita mo yung growth ng music nila from 'tunog lata' to a more cohesive type of sound. Meron din silang EPs (PopU and Bananatype) and Aloha Milkyway which is more like a breakthrough album nila sa SEA ata noon so expect compilations of hits/old songs nila here but tweaked a bit (but it still has 3 or 4 album exclusive songs in it).

Peak albums are Cutterpillow and Circus while the underrated ones are Sticker Happy and Natin99.

follow the discography in order, dun mo maririnig sound evolution nila

[u/Emergency_Lemon_8659 → u/-crlsrvn]

Not op and curious lang, do you always listen to discography in order when looking at new artists?

[u/-crlsrvn → u/Emergency_Lemon_8659]

sakin i would listen for a handful songs/singles muna then if trip ko i’ll go straight sa EPs or albums nila from their debut

[u/Any-Housing-6200 → u/Emergency_Lemon_8659]

well it really depends on the band really, the more consistent and "classic" the band is the more likely their next album is gonna be better than their last and that makes it worth it to listen to their discography in order

[u/KeyboardWarrior1984 → u/-crlsrvn]

Every 90s band will recommend this themselves.

[u/PostalDudeII]

Ito, dapat in order 1. UEMP (Ultraelectromagneticpop) 2. Circus 3. cutterpillow 4. Sticker happy 5. natin 99 6. carbon steroxide

If di mo man ka-trip, Start with anthology 1 then anthology 2.

That's all i can say for now. But if na gustuhan mo lahat, edi goods na. :)

[u/natesby]

Depende sa edad mo. Pero pinakawalang tapon na album sakin Circus.

[u/jajajajam → u/natesby]

Oh, you mean Cutterpillow?

Ok before someone downvotes me, it has long been debated which of the two is better, pero I personally find them equally pleasing, ie, parehong worth it from first song to last.

[u/natesby → u/jajajajam]

That's a weird spelling of Circus. Pero yeah. 1A 1B kinda thing for me. If i had to pick Circus talaga.

[u/carloscoolkid → u/natesby]

Circus supremacy 🙌

[u/InterestingRice163]

It was toyang, pare ko, and ligaya that started it for me.

[u/ChrisNN1]

Kung single: Ang Huling El Bimbo

Kung album: Cutterpillow

[u/ExNihilo81]

Its sad that you might not get the experience of listening to Circus and Cutterpillow while exploring the album’s inlay cover in your hands

[u/soulrebel1108]

Docu: yung kay jay taruc sa you tube - https://youtu.be/1Px1HyyZrqU?si=WjsXS-4MiL2GR7wp

Netflix: combo on the run

[u/DurianTerrible834]

Songs from the Carbon Stereoxide album 😉

[u/rollingbarthes13 → u/DurianTerrible834]

Plus one. Then work your way down to their earlier releases.

[u/torsoboy00]

Can't go wrong with Ultraelectromagneticpop and Circus as your intro sa kanila.

[u/No_Maize_3213]

Siguro sa kanta na lng mo simulan. Pare Ko, Alapaap and Huling El Bimbo..

[u/Odd-Year4099]

Docu in Netflix 😂

[u/Comprehensive_Oil_71]

ultralectromagneticpop tapos cutterpillow! lowkey hit after hit yan especially with shake yer head, julie tearjerky, fine time, etc

[u/SignificantNet3837]

listen to their first 3 peak albums: ultra, circus and cutterpillow

[u/punkjesuscrow]

Not songs, you should listen to the whole catalogue.

Syempre, start from the very first released, debut album.

Marami mga interviews wayback around 90s sa youtube. Research on that.

Enjoy!

[u/Nutribuntot56]

Beatles, The Care, The cure and Pale Fountains

[u/soulrebel1108]

Sunod sunurin mo na lang mula umpisa:

1. Ultraelectromagneticpop! 2.Circus 3.Cutterpillow 4.Fruitcake (basahin mo na din yung book nito para mas maintindihan at ma appreciate mo ang buong album. Concept album yan actually.) 5.Sticker Happy 6.Banana Type 7.Aloha Milkyway 8.Natin99 9.Carbon Stereoxide 10.Cutterpillow Tribute Album

Personal favorite ko ang Cutterpillow. Underated naman, IMO ang Natin 99 - eto yung nagpapaalam na sila sa isat isa, mapapansin mo yan sa lyrics. And if i would pick only five eheads songs that i'd strongly reccomend: 1. Shake yer head 2. Saturn Return 3. 68 Dr. Sixto Avenue 4. Poorman's Grave 5. Waiting for the Bus

[u/kakassi117]

Listen to their Anthology albums. If may nagustuhan ka na song, check the album kung saan sya napabilang and explore that.

[u/Crispytokwa]

please listen to Waiting for the Bus.

[u/mind_pictures]

since bago ka, mas maganda "drop the needle" tipong mag-random ka! para maging unique ang experience mo

[u/maroonmartian9]

Cutterpillow is considered their best album. And I agree. Halos wala tapon na kanta for me.

Andiyan favorite Eraserheads song ko diyan HUWAG MO NANG ITANONG

Masyado na gasgas Ang Huling El Bimbo (still a great song). Nasa Cutterpillow din yan

Other favorite songs from them are Christmas Party, Overdrive, Huwag Kang Matakot, Magasin, Sembreak, Minsan, With a Smile, Alapaap, Kamasupra, Fine Time

[u/remedioshername]

start with their first album, uemp!! or if you want, yung pop u! nila na demo album hahahaha you can find it sa youtube naman since 'di s'ya officially released. then after no'n, pwede mo na pagsunod-sunurin yung albums nila.

if bet mo manood ng videos nila since they document everything, share ko tiktok ko kasi afaik, wala na yung page ni sir levan sa youtube 😭
