Operation: Cliff Clavin was one of Chris Johnston's (more commonly known as Chris Clavin) first bands and one of the earliest bands on Plan-It-X Records. They were an influential DIY political pop-punk band that toured the United States consistently and had one international tour. The band had a rotating roster of bassists and drummers, the last being Hannah Jones and Franki Chan.

They broke up in 1999 after a few EPs and one full length only to reunite and find a new lineup later.

The music of Operation: Cliff Clavin has been used extensively in the fourth season of Rox.

They played their final show in 2004. However, in 2014, they reunited for the 20th anniversary of Plan-It-X Records at Plan-It-X Fest in Spencer, Indiana.
