Buendia had a complicated relationship with his father,[4] later writing the songs "Poorman's Grave" and "Acid Tongue" about him.[5] He also wrote his first song "The Junction" after hearing Michael Jackson's album Off the Wall on cassette, getting as far as the chorus.[5] Buendia wrote his first proper song "Unstrung Heroes" at the age of 14, which he later recorded with rapper Francis M.

for his album Happy Battle.[6] He grew up listening to Rico J. Puno, Diomedes Maturan, Elvis, Bob Dylan, and the Beatles.[6]

Buendia attended college at University of the Philippines Diliman. He played bass for the college band Bluidie Tryste in , which had Raymund dela Peña on vocals.[7] They debuted at a protest rally, covering "Boys Don't Cry" by The Cure.[7] The following year, Buendia and dela Peña held auditions for a new band, of which freshman Raimund Marasigan responded.

He invited his fellow freshmen Buddy Zabala and Marcus Adoro for a jam session at Alberto's rehearsal studio in Cubao, but nothing materialized.[8] Buendia and dela Peña later formed a new band called Sunday School, which focused on new wave and had session drummers including Marasigan. Dela Peña eventually left the band to pursue jazz, leading Marasigan to bring in Zabala and Adoro from his own band Curfew.[7] Marasigan and Buendia combined Sunday School and Curfew into a new band, which they named Eraserheads after the David Lynch film.[9]

Career

Eraserheads

Main article: Eraserheads

The band played at campus events, usually as the crowd started to leave.

In January , they recorded a nine-song demo tape at Marasigan's garage in Candelaria, Quezon and shopped it around record labels, clubs, and radio stations only to be met with rejection; one record label commented that the demos were "not pop enough". Marasigan gave a copy of the demo tape to his humanities professor Robin Rivera, who helped them re-record and mix better versions of the demos.

The new demo tape was named Pop-U! as an irreverent response to those who turned them down. It earned the band a spot at Club Dredd, where they initially had little success playing covers. They decided to write their own material which soon earned them a cult following. One song written by Buendia, "Pare Ko", became popular for its explicit lyrics.[9] The band soon landed an out-of-town gig opening for Introvoys in Cebu.

Buendia wrote "Combo on the Run" based on their experiences there.[9]

Buendia, who majored in mass communication with a degree in film at UP, sold Bicol express to his dorm mates to earn money, but later dropped out.[7] He worked at BMG as a copywriter while writing songs with his band members at night.

"We could have done another Cutterpillow that would have been even more popular," he said in another interview. "But after I saw 20,plus people at the Sunken Garden, naisip ko, 'Paano pa natin masusundan 'yon?' Obvious na 'yun ang gusto ng masa, 'yung ganoong tunog. Siyempre, kung ano ang gusto, 'yun ang hindi namin ginawa (How do you follow up something like that?

Obviously that's what the masses want, that sound, and of course that's not what we did)."[4]
