    With For The Company, Little May have added another worthy entrant to 2015's albums of modern blues and, unlike the relationships that inhabit its songs, it gets better with each visit.

    The result is that For the Company doesn’t end up sounding like an album so much as 11 songs that--instead of being individually tailored to complement and balance each other--have been burnished to within an inch of their lives to maximise each one’s chances of cinematic or television placement.

    Not quite as catchy or harmony-rich as a few of their earliest songs, some of Little May's early adopters may be a little bummed out by the material, but many will find it hits a sweet spot between the heart and head in which to snugly settle.

    [A] soaring yet engagingly earthly first album. [Nov 2015, p.96]

    If there's one gripe, it's that the quality control becomes a little more relaxed as For The Company progresses. [Dec 2015, p.110]
