Korn drummer takes a break - By N.L. Belardes
From MTV news:
Korn Quiet Down With The Cure, Amy Lee For 'MTV Unplugged'
Drummer David Silviera, absent from taping, is on hiatus from band; show to air in February.
NEW YORK — Walking away from Saturday's taping of "MTV Unplugged: Korn," one couldn't help but reflect on the fact that this band actually pulled it off.
Let's face it: Korn — who helped give birth to an entire genre of aggressive, hip-hop-imbued rock during the mid-1990s and have become renowned for delivering one of the most intense and brutal live shows around — and the word "acoustic" have never appeared in the same sentence until, well, right now. This is a band whose members scream through entire live sets with such force that they can be heard over the 120 decibels they're known for pumping out onstage. This is a band that doesn't rock sitting down. So how would tracks like "Got the Life," "Blind" and "Freak on a Leash" sound unplugged? Well, different, of course — but no less ominous, passionate or intimidating.

I like some of Korn's songs.But I think they are ugly.So that kind of wrecks it for me.Maybe they are so angry because they are so ugly? Oh yeah.
Ugly? How dare you! hahaha... I will make no comment. JD's porn star wife might come after both of us...
nooooooooo! Nooooo.. I'm not ready to let go of Korn yet. I hope it's just a break.
