☆ L§Ð's History ☆ First and foremost, I love my friends that are here for LSD. I say "friends" and not "fans", because they are not fanatics, but true friends. They are my backbone! I will do anything for them. Nothing can take them down. THEY OWN my heart! *MEMBERS: All instruments and vocals= Aaron A'bellira~ I was born and raised in Honolulu Hawaii, but I also lived in L.A for several years as a bass player, playing funky ass hard rock music. My bands name was "United Snakes", and we did very well. We had tons of label interest, and played tons of shows in Hollywoods most well known clubs. It was a band that we started from scratch, and we were very proud of the fact that in all of it's success, we never payed to play, starting off playing just as hard in total dives, in front of 10 people as we did in the most packed crowd. Our fan base grew rapidly on just sheer kicking ass. No gimmicks, no costumes, and no choreography. But due to drug abuse and the egos that followed, our once prized passion slowly deteriorated, and soon we went our separate ways. But for me, even though I knew that what we had was a once in a life time thing at best, it wasn't all gloom. A short time after that, a well known band named "Faster Pussycat", having already replaced their original drummer, needed a bass player for reasons that I have no right to reveal. But in short, I auditioned, and after a few sessions, I was in. I got to do a mini tour, and then a bigger tour shortly after which included the U.S, and then a couple of shows in Japan, etc. What was really cool, was that before I moved to L.A, I used to listen to them as a kid, and they were the coolest thing to me. I would have given anything to have played with them when I was a kid in Hawaii, and here I was...IN THE BAND. The only downfall was that this wasn't my baby. It was theirs. They scratched and clawed for it to rise, and I wasn't a true part of that. So signing autographs and all that, I was more than happy to do for the fans, but I didn't feel I personally deserved it. But all in all, the guys were very patient with me being a "green pea", and Greg, Taime, and Brent treated me good. They were cool as shit! I will always appreciate the opportunity and experiences that Faster PussyCat and Warren Entner Management gave me. Last I checked, Taime is the only original member, but Faster is still going strong. My passions are still the same however, now I'm doing it all on my own. But not because of ego or even by choice, but because of sheer necessity. I got tired of trying to find other musicians in Hawaii, that would wanna play with me. So I said, "fuck it, I'll do it myself". The name of my project is "Love Sex n Death", and I do all of the vocals, guitars, bass, beats/drums, and piano/keyboards, as well as the engineering on my recordings. I'm hoping to have a full band soon. Rock of all varieties is my preference. To give you a glimpse of my personality, I despise the fake, and even more so, liars. I also think that people who jump on bandwagons are weak. Like people that try to be all "urban", with their pants hanging past their ass, and use the movie "Friday", and Snoop Dogg/Dr.Dre songs as their guide line for their vocabulary, but grew up in the suburbs with a silver spoon up their ass. If you're thinkin to yourself, "cuz dass how I row yo",then get the fuck out now. Trends are trends, styles are styles, and that's okay, we take it and make it our own. But to be a photo copy of someone else, or to like something ONLY because it's "in", is fucking gay . If that's you, please remember..........SUICIDE IS ALWAYS AN OPTION! Patience is something I'll be working on for the rest of my life, so stupidity is a very hard thing for me to take a lot of. That's my stupidity. Irony. But I try, and I'm getting better and better. Deep inside, I have a soul full of compassion for people and animals. I like animals slightly better.*The Music* Please do not mistake me for being pure in anything else, except Rock n Roll. Although my music tends to have an Industrial flavor to it, when you break it down, or actually listening to the guitars and bass, you'll see that I write ROCK songs, and play them, and all the other spices are added to that. Plus, I tend to write in many different genres, as you will see by just going through my playlist. *You* If you actually read this whole bio, thank you from the bottom of my heart, for taking such interest in LSD. May your "trip", be a fun ride! Peace.
~*Thank You-Aloha & Mahalo nui loa
for your love and support.*
