  OPM icon Ely Buendia has revealed that members of the ’90s band Eraserheads weren’t really friends, May 26, Wednesday.

  The former Eraserheads frontman has been a guest in the podcast ‘Wake Up with Jim & Saab‘ by the celebrity couple Jim Bacarro and Saab Magalona.

  There, Buendia told the hosts, “I don’t wanna break hearts again but we were never close. We were never friends. That’s why we broke up,” he said.

  “We weren’t Itchyworms. We weren’t Parokya Ni Edgar. But you know, it was good while it lasted. We had a very, very good working relationship. It’s just that, I don’t like it when people say that. It’s just a wrong way to go in terms of how the dynamics within the band,” he added.

  In the same podcast episode, he debunked the rumors about ‘Spoliarium’ and ‘Minsan’ songs. “It wasn’t about the Eraserheads. It was about my friends.” Buendia concluded.
