Tornado EP

Tornado is an EP by Canadian punk rock band Teenage Heads, released in 1983. It was the band's first release on MCA and their first international release outside of Canada.[1] Normally called Teenage Head, MCA convinced the band to change their name on this release to a pluralized form to avoid possible censorship and also encouraged a more polished, mainstream sound[2]
