Mod-A-Day: The Aces


The Aces were one of dozens of mod revival bands that left behind few traces of their existence. Rising out of punk band Menace, The Aces adopted a mod sound and image. Just one single was recorded, the song here "One Way Street", which has since appeared on several mod compilations. The Aces had a nice tight sound, blending power pop with sharp vocals and nice songwriting.
