Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Silence is the debut album of American rock band Glassjaw, released on May 9, 2000, by Roadrunner Records. It was produced by Ross Robinson. The album received positive reviews from critics, and has since been cited as an influential album in post-hardcore.

Glassjaw has been rumored to discourage the purchasing of this album due to their acrimonious split from Roadrunner Records. Instead, they encourage people to download their music via file sharing software, such as Limewire. Robinson claimed that the label showed no interest in the band until he pushed to have them signed and showed little interest after.

A remastered version of the album[5] was released on March 24, 2009, with two bonus tracks: "Convectuoso" and a cover of Youth of Today's "Modern Love Story".[6]
