Hell To The Liars

It’s not everyday you see three grime heavyweights team up with an indie-pop trio known for their sparse, melancholic output, but on ‘Hell To The Liars’, Sir Spyro, Ghetts, Jaykae and London Grammar have pooled their resources. Though on paper that might sound like a hot mess, the four acts have created something that’s ethereal (thanks to LG vocalist Hannah Reid) but not overly fragile (just wait for Spyro’s horns to kick in). Ghetts delivers a solid verse, but it’s Birmingham’s Jaykae who grabs the spotlight with some searing, bolshy bars. Not a triumph, but far from a disaster.
