Somerset-based band The Locarnos are about as indie as it gets, citing (perhaps ironically) influences including The Libertines, The Kooks, Arctic Monkeys, The Mighty Boosh and Topman. Yep, Topman. Anyhoo, having supported the likes of The Holloways, they already seem well ingrained in indie dreamland, and have signed a 'deal' with indie label South West records, which specialises in releasing one-off singles. Given all this, it's unsurprising that their songs sound like a summation of the NME stereo 2001-2006 - both Myspace offerings worthy of the 'indie disco' tag oft used by lazy journalists and rarely used by CMU-ers (other than to illustrate such points as this, obviously). A standout choice between the demos of 'Don't Give Me A Hard Time' and 'Stick and Stones' is thus hard to pick, so I suggest you take a good long listen to both. And make sure you play them loud.
