    Review for If Any/Spacepod 7" by J. HenryPublished in Form Guide MagazineMelbourne 3-piece Sauce have been around for a year or so now playing the odd gig about town, and gaining a reputation for their intricately designed and highly distinctive style of rock 'n' roll. "If Any/Spacepod" is a limited edition double A-side 7" vinyl release taken from a session at Birdland Studio earlier this year. Sauce's pedigree (God, Patterson's Curse, Seaweed Goorillas, Bullwinkle et al) might reveal a bit about the raw organic slab of rock imprinted here. Steeped in 70's character, but heavily layered with refreshing grooves and simple melodies, "If Any" is at once funky and slightly quirky, held together with solid rhythms and a guitar line floating over it all, making for compelling listening which rewards with repeated listens. "Spacepod" shows a more refined and laidback aspect to Sauce, highly textural, filled with complex guitar/bass melodies. "Spacepod" cruises into spatial psychedelia, utilizing dynamics to full effect, giving the illusion that Sauce contain more than just 3 members. If you get a chance to see them live, you may be amazed because they actually pull this off. That said, there's probably not a lot here for those of the alternocred persuasion, but fans of honest original rock will not be disappointed.
