Masters of the Hemisphere were one of the first indiepop bands I ever heard. They were on this kindercore compilation and their song On The Streets The Key was just amazing. It has this multi-layered ending with three vocal sections.  And Meteor has a great ending too in the same style. I still get it in my head every now and then.

Not all their songs sound like that, but it\’s what I like.

I got to see them twice in NYC and I have never seen any band perform as high as they were.  I have no idea how they were able to stand, let alone play their instruments.  And they played well too.

They broke up a couple years ago, but luckily, their last album, Protest a Dark Anniversary, was a good way to go out.
