For My Pain...

Realizing that Finnish rock fans were experiencing a sudden love affair with commercially savvy goth metal bands such as H.I.M., Entwine, and To/Die/For, a group of opportunistic veterans from the regional extreme metal scene decided to focus their energies on what was previously just a side project called For My Pain.... Featuring guitarist Olli-Pekka Törrö, bassist Altti Veteläinen, and drummer Petri Sankala of Eternal Tears of Sorrow, keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen from Nightwish, guitarist Lauri Tuohimaa of Charon, and Reflexion vocalist Juha Kylmänen, For My Pain... made their debut with 2003's Fallen album, released through Finland's own Spinefarm Records.
