SONG OF THE WEEK: Ruen Brothers - Aces

This first month of 2013 seems to bring good music once again back on the main stage with Miles Kane releasing his best single so far with Give Up. And if we're careful enough and keep on believing in the virtues of rock and soul, the decade could turn out to be the Swinging Tennies.

That's why this week's song is for us the Ruen Brothers' Aces. Coming from London, the duo made of Rupert and Henry Stansall recently uploaded  the video for their very vintage single. As well as having an amazing vocalist who owes a lot to Eric Burdon and, yes, let's admit it, to Brendon Urie , the two guys also have an inner sense of what mod-inspired music has to be : upbeat, melodic, individualistic enough not to be classified in a genre but  rallying enough to appeal to a new generation of unconventional people.

The Ruen Brothers epitomize the longing of post-teenage kids for old-fashioned fame and music and manage to release the second best single of this new year. Remember, the Mods are not back because they never really went away. And the tide might well come in again in 2013.
