Skate 4 Cancer and Silverstein are teaming up to launch The Cure Is Knowledge in Toronto on February 16, 2007 at The El Mocambo. The Cure Is Knowledge is the focus of Skate 4 Cancer and its purpose is to eliminate destructive elements from our close society.

This all ages event is free with the purchase of a Cure Is Knowledge t-shirt. These t-shirts are intended to send out bold messages to educate our society about how our greatest plan in our search for a cure is prevention.

The Cure Is Knowledge stands to propose early practice and early detection towards signs of cancer. This includes mandatory check-ups, blood tests and full examinations. The Cure Is Knowledge also hopes to create informative cancer programs within high schools.

This is achievable via government legislation; we will advance our health and educational standards to the Canadian government with supportive petitions and drafts. Ultimately, these motions will attain a national scope.

We have a personal obligation to maintain our health. By this, we must educate ourselves with the greatest degree of knowledge, concerning prevention methods and healthy lifestyle. We are also responsible for the wellness of the future generation. Our personal and collective preventative efforts today will impede the cancer of tomorrow.

The Cure Is Knowledge stresses that the greatest issue is our commitment to our health and our actions towards tremendous change. Your involvement is far more valuable that any kind of financial contribution. The way in which we live our lives is the way in which we will bring about change, not through money.

We are extremely excited to be involved in the launch of this great campaign, as well as to be able to play a fun exclusive show with tons of great bands and friends during our time off at home to write a new album!

Please join us February 16th at the El Mocambo. Together we can raise awareness, together we can eliminate the chance for cancer to occur.


Demand to know.
Demand a cure.
The cure is knowledge.

SILVERSTEIN RETURNS WITH A NEW ALBUM - SUMMER 2007

Silverstein closed out 2006 with a hugely successful headlining tour, spanning the entire USA and parts of Canada. In addition to supporting such successful acts as Underoath and Simple Plan, the band also made appearances on the Vans Warped Tour, Taste of Chaos, and the Take Action tour. They played to audiences in a total of 15 countries increasing their fan-base around the world.

Extensive touring and hard work has paid off for Silverstein as last year they received the JUNO nomination for Best New Group of the Year. Their two previous full-length albums have sold over 400,000 units and they have seen over one hundred diehard fans proclaim their dedication with Silverstein tattoos.

Since wrapping up their last tour in December, Silverstein been locked up in the cold Canadian winter writing songs for their next full-length offering. Fans can expect a diverse record pulling in all of the bands' musical influences and applying their usual melodic aggressive sound. They will hit the studio in March with producer Mark Trombino (Jimmy Eat World, Blink 182, etc.). The currently untitled album will hit stores worldwide this summer through Victory Records.

This spring the band will make an appearance at the Bamboozle Festival in New Jersey and plan to tour Mexico for the first time. Fans can also expect to see Silverstein on a full North American tour this summer.

Bill and I came down to NYC for the weekend to attend Anthony from Bayside's wedding. If you are unfamiliar with Bayside, check them out! They rule and have a new record coming out next month... their music will change your life. Besides the wedding and hanging with good friends, we did a lot of shopping and over-ate a lot of sweet vegetarian food. We will be heading out to L.A. to record on March 1st, so if anyone can recommend any good food places or want to do lunch - hit us up! (ps. I love cookies, hook me up) Back to work tomorrow so we can finish up the writing process. More updates coming, we have big big big news! Tell your friends about our buzznet. PEACE

Hey everyone and welcome to our brand home on Buzznet.com! This is going to be the place where we'll be updating frequently with news, short stories, pointless facts and a bunch of embrassing photos / videos. We're currently hibernating through the cold Canadian winter. For some reason the first real snow fall hasn't happened until today (I guess we have global warming to thank?). We've been busy writing new songs for our next album. All I can say right now is that the process has been going amazing and we've been having a lot of fun. Recording and touring plans will be announced soon too! Check back often for updates, peace!
