MANILA, Philippines – Twelve years after being disbanded, Eraserheads is finally set to give the fans another ear-gasmic music experience. Esquire Philippines announced via their Facebook page that they will be featuring the iconic band on their September 2014 travel issue.

The last time
In 2002, the band, composed of Ely Buendia, Raimund Marasigan, Buddy Zabala and Marcus Adoro called it quits, after Ely Buendia, the front man of the band left the group. All the fans thought that the band has permanently unplugged their music, but in 2008, they reunited for a concert, which unfortunately was cut short because of Buendia's health issues. On the following year, they played together at the Mall of Asia grounds for their ‘The Final Set’ concert. Since then, they haven’t been heard in the Philippines, although they went on international reunion tours from 2012 onwards.

Unfading popularity
Despite being silent for a couple of years, the Eraserheads proved that they are still buzzworthy and widely recognized. Just last week, Spotify Philippines announced that Eraserheads secured the top spot as the most streamed OPM artists on the music streaming service.  Their songs ‘Pare Ko,’ ‘Ang Huling El Bimbo,’ and ‘Ligaya,’ are among the most played during the service's first months of operations in the country from July to August.

Two new songs and exclusive photos available on September
The songs “Sabado” and “1995” will be issued by Esquire Philippines in CD format, which can only be availed through the September issue of the magazine.  Aside from that, it will also be packed with photos and other accounts during Eraserheads’ London tour, with a proper cover photo of the band on renowned  Abbey Road.

Meanwhile, Raymund Marasigan shared the news by posting a photo via Instagram of the band while rehearsing.

Eraserheads On The New Mag Cover Of Esquire Philippines......Now Available Nationwide!!!!!! =)

#EsquireEheads 

This month, ESQUIRE Philippines makes pop-cultural history in collaboration with the biggest band the country has ever known: the Eraserheads.

Since the Eraserheads broke up over a decade ago, their fans have despaired of ever hearing new music from these beloved icons, even as their subsequent reunion concerts here and abroad broke all attendance records. Now, ESQUIRE Philippines brings to you the Eraserheads of the 21st century, with two new singles: "Sabado" and "1995," only available with the CD included in this issue.

Also in this issue: Editor-in-Chief Erwin Romulo's in-depth account of the Eraserheads' London tour. By turns insightful, funny, informative, and heartbreaking, it is a unique document, both intensely personal and engagingly human. Meanwhile, Audrey N. Carpio voyages to Zambia to explore its mesmerizing landscapes. And Jerome Gomez journeys to Japan, spending ten days in the land of cherry blossoms during springtime.

Rounding out this special Travel issue, ESQUIRE features a behind-the-scenes look at air transport, as a former flight attendant fills us in on what really happens when you're traveling 37,000 feet above the ground. Also: ever wonder what people get out of bed for in the more distant corners of the globe? A look at seven breakfasts, from Mexico to Suriname. (They go far beyond just eggs and toast.)

Plus: new fiction from Luis Katigbak, a What I’ve Learned interview with the inimitable (and incorrigible) Teodoro "Teddyboy" Locsin Jr., and an ESQ&A with acclaimed historian Ambeth Ocampo.

All this and more, this month on ESQUIRE.
