Fruitcake is the first extended play by the Philippine alternative rock band Eraserheads, released on November 1996 through BMG Records (Pilipinas), Inc. It serves as promotional material for the band’s fourth album of the same name, which was released the following month.
The promotional EP contains two tracks from the upcoming Fruitcake album: an edited version of the title track and "Old Fashioned Christmas Carol". The third track is an unplugged performance of the Christmas standard "Christmas Alphabet", recorded live at NU 107 on December 1994.[1]
The music video for "Fruitcake" was directed by the band with help from American director Mark Gary. Shot at Cubao in Quezon City, it shows the band posing as blind musicians and handing out leaflets in barbershops, markets and a carousel before being arrested by a policeman. The video features cameo appearances from Francis M. playing the policeman and singer/actress Agot Isidro.[2]
