Captain Cleanoff is grind band formed in the South Australian town of Mt Gambier in 1996 with Christian Dicer on drums before moving to Adelaide sometime afterward. Heath Twigden replaced Dicer in 1997. When early bassist Michael Slottagraf left the band, Johnson played bass until White joined the fold. Murray Ruse replaced Twigden in 2001. The group has members who now live in three different states so live work is limited, however they have played at [[Metal for the Brain]] twice.
