Nothing Short of a Bullet is a 2001 live album by The Lowest of the Low. The album documents the band's 2000 reunion tour. The title comes from a line in the band's song "For the Hand of Magdalena", Nothing short of a bullet could have broken your will.

It was released on MapleMusic Recordings.

The tracks on the album are taken from performances in Toronto and Buffalo. One of the songs performed in concert, "The Unbearable Lightness of Jean", never appeared on any of the band's studio albums, although a live version of it did appear on their Motel 30 single.

The album also contains a studio disc with three new songs, two originals by the band and one cover of a Bad Religion song.
