		<title>Eraserheads CDs and Albums. Discography.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[<P><img src=http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/21ENTE1GFAL._SL160_.jpg alt="Eraserheads" border="0" align="left" />Naisip ko lang dahil sa Eheads reunion concert ay baka maraming interesado sa discography ng Eraserheads. Ibig sabihin ng discography ay lahat ng mga records (CD, cassette tape, plaka vinyl) na inilabas kung saan kasama ang isang artista, banda o musikero. Swerte ang BMG Pilipinas sa reunion na ito, sigurado maraming bibili ng back catalog ng Eraserheads, easily 10,000 units sold ito for this year alone lalo na't ilang beses ipapalabas sa MTV ang first set ng Easerheads reunion concert last August 30, 2008.</p>
<P>Mamaya ko na lang i-post yung mga actual info details ng Eheads CDs with the complete list ng mga solo albums of the original Eraserheads lineup (Marcus Adoro, Raimund Marasigan, Buddy Zabala at syempre si Ely Buendia)</p>
