Blownapart Bastards were a crust punk band of the early-to-mid 1990s from Greensboro, NC. In an era of Born Against, Econochrist, and Rorschach, Blownapart Bastards had a similar sound to these bands with at least as much to say. Coming from North Carolina, and not adhering to punk fashion (their singer wore Tevas and bright shorts), Blownapart Bastards was less popular than these punk giants of the early 90s. Their lyrics were overtly political about issues ranging from animal rights, the environment, globalization (before is was a big issue amongst punks), nonviolence, and indigenous rights.

The band shared a drummer with the Scottish band Oi Polloi, and went on a US tour with Oi Polloi and released a split 7" with them. Blownapart Bastards broke up in 1995 and their members went on to form Divide & Conquer, Unsettled, Catharsis , and Uwharria.
