[edit] History

Scattered Order were a post punk band based in Sydney, Australia. They were formed in 1979, and initially comprised Mitch Jones (who remained the only original member in the band's many subsequent incarnations), Michael Tee, and Simon Vidale. The lineup would change often throughout the eighties and nineties. However, it would appear that there has been little to no activity by the group since 2000.

Scattered Order have been associated and/or shared members with various other Australian punk and post punk bands, such as Severed Heads, X, Pel Mel, The Limp, Lime Spiders, Thought Criminals, The Makers Of The Dead Travel Fast, and Tactics.
