Scattered Order was a post punk band based in Sydney, Australia.[1] 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. After an extended period of inactivity during the 2000s, Scattered Order have reformed to play a number of Australian shows since 2011.

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.
