Biography
Swedish punk band Operation are incorrectly listed as The Operation on Spotify.
The Operation is kind of known for being "the band before mewithoutYou": Greg Jehanian, Michael Weiss, Aaron Weiss, Chris Kleinberg were all members. They released There is Hope For a Tree Cut Down from Take Hold Records, but stopped soon after when mewithoutYou, which began as a side project, became more popular and a serious deal.
