The Operation M.D. (formerly The Operation) is a Canadian garage rock band created by Dr. Dynamite (Cone of Sum 41) and Dr. Rocco (Todd Morse of H2O and The Offspring) as a side project to their other bands. The band's debut album We Have an Emergency was released in February 2007 by Aquarius Records. Their second album Birds + Bee Stings was self-released by the band's own label "Mouth To Mouth Music" in June 2010.
McCaslin and Morse met one another as their bands Sum 41 and H2O toured during the 2001 Warped Tour. The two came up with a medical theme for their band and assumed the aliases of Dr. Dynamite (McCaslin) and Dr. Rocco (Morse) under the name The Operation. After signing with Aquarius Records the band added "M.D." to their name for legal reasons. The band's debut album We Have an Emergency was recorded during the summer of 2006, when Sum 41 was on hiatus, and was released on February 20, 2007 in Canada with two music videos made for the songs "Sayanora" and "Someone Like You", with both videos being directed by Sum 41 drummer Steve Jocz (Dr. Dinero). Though the band has said many times they don't plan to tour or to play live shows with this project, they did however play one special show at the Bovine Sex Club in Toronto, Ontario, in August 2008. On April 18, 2008, the album was also released in Japan.
