God Bullies were an American Noise-Rock band from Kalamazoo, Michigan. They were active from 1986–1995, briefly reunited in the early 2000's and most recently in the summer of 2010 to coincide with the Amphetamine Reptile Records' 25th Anniversary concert.

The band has released material with Alternative Tentacles and Sympathy The Record Industry, but the bulk of their releases were with Amphetamine Reptile Records.

Although God Bullies never found any mainstream success, creepy anthems like "Let's Go To Hell", "Ordinary Man" and "Cemetary", paired with frontman Mike Hard's theatrical delivery and over-the-top stage antics, the band earned a large cult following. God Bullies toured extensively throughout the US and Europe with artists like Hole
