Generic Shame is an EP from Vancouver punk rock band Nomeansno.

In 1999, Nomeansno members and brothers Rob and John Wright rehearsed a batch of long and ponderous songs originally intended for their side project Mr.

[1] The Wrights ultimately decided, however, to release the material as the ninth Nomeansno album.

Three remaining tracks were issued the following year as Generic Shame on the band's own Wrong Records.

Rob Wright later explained that the songs did not fit the intended mood of One.
