Guilty of Everything is the debut studio album released by the American shoegaze band Nothing. It was released on March 4, 2014 by Relapse Records.

The band's musical style has been described as a mixture of 1990s shoegaze, noise rock and slowcore, and also categorized as "heavy dream pop" and "billowy alt-rock." Nevertheless, the band's sound is differentiated from other shoegaze acts with its loudness and heaviness, leading to comparisons to My Bloody Valentine's Loveless (1991), the Smashing Pumpkins and Dinosaur Jr., and also "stays current by also giving nods to the post-Brand New indie rock sound." According to Stephen Carlick of Exclaim!, Nothing's use of "towering distorted guitars, soaring falsettos and slamming, snare-heavy percussion" evoke "Slowdive's biggest moments, albeit with a little more passion." The vocals of lead singer Dominic Palermo, which are "hushed and buried in the mix," were compared to Chapterhouse in terms of harmony.

Prior to the album's release, the first single, "Dig", debuted on August 8, 2013 via Stereogum. A music video for the track "Bent Nail", directed by Don Argott, was released on March 31, 2014, featuring a cameo appearance by singer-songwriter Kurt Vile. On May 26, 2015, a special LGBT vinyl edition was released, available only on Relapse Records' web store. This version featured alternate artwork, with the standard white flag altered to a Rainbow Pride flag and "electric blue with rainbow splatter" vinyl. With each purchase, 50 cents each was donated to the LGBT charities New Alternatives (an organization dedicated to helping homeless LGBT youth in New York City) and the It Gets Better Project.
