Korn (music) taped a performance over the weekend for MTV's "Unplugged" series, a gig that apparently will mark drummer David Silveria's last appearance with the group for awhile.

"I just need a break for right now," Silveria said in a press release.

According to the group's publicist, Silveria's bandmates Jonathan Davis, Fieldy and Munky will continue to record a new Korn album that's tentatively set to hit stores in June. The group also plans to head up another edition of the Family Values Tour next summer sans Silveria, though the drummer's absence is described in a statement as a "temporary hiatus."

Meanwhile, Korn's "Unplugged" special is expected to air early next year on MTV, but a specific date hasn't been announced. Joining Korn for the "Unplugged" session were special guests The Cure (music) and Evanescence (music)'s Amy Lee.
