Growing up in the Bakersfield area, David Silveria started playing drums when he was nine. At the age of 13, he found out that local band L.A.P.D. was searching for a drummer. He auditioned and was chosen, but needed permission from his mother to go with the band. Later on L.A.P.D. changed to Korn after some shifting in band members.
