'''''Pop Machine the Album: A Collective of Artists Turning Heads This 2020''''' is the third tribute album to the Philippine alternative rock band Eraserheads. It was released on June 12, 2020 by Noisemakers. The album features covers of Eraserheads songs as performed by Filipino artists, which were gradually released throughout late 2019 and early 2020. The title comes from the song “Pop Machine” from the band’s sixth album ''Natin99'' (1999).

==Content== Leanne and Naara shared their experience covering "Alapaap" in an interview with Bandwagon Asia. "One of the really exciting things that we got to do for this track was the vocals," they said. "We just went crazy with it. It helped us get into this carefree mindset that is the very essence of this song."<ref name="bandwagon" />

According to Lola Amour bassist Raymond King, his band's cover of "Shake Yer Head" was inspired by the song "Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours" by Stevie Wonder.<ref name="lola amour" />

For her cover of "Huwag Kang Matakot", Reese Lansangan interpreted the song's lyrics as being from a mother's perspective to her child as “giving comfort and courage”.<ref name="esquire" />
