Children of Bodom is a Finnish extreme metal band from Espoo.
 Formed in 1993, the group consists of Alexi Laiho (vocals, lead guitar), Janne Wirman (keyboards), Henkka Seppälä (bass), Jaska Raatikainen (drums) and Daniel Freyberg (rhythm guitar).
 They have released nine studio albums, two live albums, two EPs, two compilation albums and one DVD.
Suicide By My Side is the third and final album by the power metal band Sinergy, released in 2002.
 It shows a substantial progress in their musical style; singer Kimberly Goss performs in a sharper, more aggressive vocal style, and guitarists Alexi Laiho and Roope Latvala perform more technical solos.
 Goss has noted that while the title (and the title track lyrics) are to an extent autobiographical, unlike she states in the music video, she has never attempted suicide.
Nihil is the sixth full-length release by Impaled Nazarene.
 It was released June 16, 2000 through Osmose Productions.
 Alexi Laiho of Children of Bodom plays guitar on the album.
 Laiho has also composed songs "Cogito Ergo Sum" and "Zero Tolerance".
 The album recently entered Germany's Index List which means the album may not be advertised in public or sold to minors.
 The song "Zero Tolerance" is infamous due to its homophobic lyrics (it's not included in the booklet in some editions).
Karen Anne Carpenter (March 2, 1950 – February 4, 1983) was an American singer and drummer, and part of the duo the Carpenters with her brother Richard.
 She was critically acclaimed for her contralto vocals, and her drumming was praised by contemporary musicians and peers.
Beware the Heavens is the first album by the power metal band Sinergy, released in 1999.
 The album features two instrumental tracks "Born Unto Fire and Passion" and "Pulsation", and a track inspired by the series , entitled "The Warrior Princess".
 Some melodies that can be heard in the song "Beware the Heavens" were sampled from a song called "Translucent image" by IneartheD (now known as Children of Bodom); the song is featured on IneartheD's 1995 demo "Ubiquitous Absence Of Remission".
 This is the only album where Jesper Strömblad (In Flames guitarist) plays guitar alongside Alexi Laiho; his position was filled in by Roope Latvala on all subsequent albums.
Alexi "Wildchild" Laiho (born Markku Uula Aleksi Laiho; 8 April 1979) is a Finnish guitarist, composer, and vocalist.

 He has previously played with Thy Serpent and Impaled Nazarene on occasion, as well as Warmen and Hypocrisy.
"If I Had You" is a song recorded by singer Karen Carpenter during her solo sessions in New York with producer Phil Ramone for her subsequently shelved debut solo album.
 In 1989 "If I Had You" was released as a Karen Carpenter solo single (featuring Richard Carpenter's remix ending), along with "The Uninvited Guest" (an outtake from the Carpenters album "Made In America"), also credited as a Karen Carpenter solo, as its B-side (in Japan the B-side was "Lovelines", another track from Karen's solo album, also the title track from the 1989 Carpenters "Lovelines" album).
 The single was the first single from the Carpenters' album "Lovelines".
 As of 2016, this is also the last Carpenters single released to American radio.
 The single version has also appeared on numerous Carpenters compilations since its release.
 The single reached number 18 on the 'Billboard" Adult Contemporary Chart.
