Building on musically challenging debut "Everything's Watched, Everyone's Watching" released in 2006 comes "Turtle Nipple & The Toxic Shock"  and for anyone who wondered whether the San Jose quartet could maintain their edge, well you needn't have worried, no conventional song structures were harmed in the making of this record!  

What this means in real terms though is another fifteen tracks of impossible to classify music even though, just occasionally, the band do stray into more traditional territory as with "Trot Line Beer Can" & "R4tb3lly" which are fairly straight up hardcore and their cover of Black Flags "Wasted" is pleasingly true to the original. Butsuch ventures into the norm are rare instead the norm as far as Heavy Heavy Low Low are concerned is to clash styles and time signatures against each other, often in a discordant way.  

No-one can deny that there's a wealth of ideas and invention at work throughout "Turtle Nipple & The Toxic Shock" but it will only reward the most dedicated and open minded listener. To get  the trance  space-rock majesty of "Eagle Mewndria" for example, requires a degree of aural stamina that not many people possess and this is where the band might face a dilemma in the future. For now though anyone looking for  challenging  listen will definitely find it here.
