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]
