Wooden Cannon vs. Tin Man Army

About Me


How it all began...
When our hero dorithy was stuck in Oz, all was right and she returned home right...wrong bitches! She had a firey affair with the wiz and had gotten knocked up behind that curtain he liked to play behind. She Thought. Really it was the tin man's baby, who had one night while dorithy was sleeping, gone poking around dorithy with his oil can. The child ended up being quadrooplets and dorithy was devastaded by the image of four soup cans falling from her. In a horrified rage, she stabbed the tin man in the throat with a can opener and was magically transported in a giant pink bubble to Oz...the prison! She was then taken by women named billy rae for the rest of her life, behind cold steel. The Wiz was so upset the babies were not his that he had his lumberjacks cut down the strongest tree in all the land. After it was cut and hauled back, they hollowed it out and made the great wooden cannon. It was hauled into the woods to destroy the tinmen, who were now full grown at this point. But with their great knowlege of metals, they created forges, and and entire army of tinmen. Armed with their axes, and fueled by their lack of ever being given hearts, began to advance on the Wiz's cannon....the war still wages to this day. The four original tin men then created instruments from the forges...and began the end of the world.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -In January of '06 WCvsTMA entered the studio for a week to record their debut record. The tunes were recorded at The Hive Creative Labs in Burnaby, British Columbia. Behind the boards were Jesse Karr and Sturt McKillop. What came out of it was 9 very, how do i say, out there songs.
In early February, WCvsTMA was picked up by hometown label, Underground Records, which also features such bands as The Photographed Voice, The Hoosegow as well as Falling In Reflection.
