Listening to This Love makes instantly makes me think of acts such as Jack's Mannequin, The Morning Of and The Fray. Bands where the delicate sound of the piano is thrown in the mix with guitars and drums: a sound that makes the passion in a song increase tenfold. Raw emotions need to be backed up by strong instruments and subtle yet effective vocals and that is exactly what This Love achieve. I may have just thrown them in to the melting pot by name-dropping others to highlight their sound but don't let that make you pass them by. There's a unique quality to them; and the best part of it is you can't quite put your finger on it yet.
