"This Love" was the first single from Coming Down, the 1990 solo debut by Daniel Ash, the guitarist who had already been through Bauhaus, Tones on Tail and Love and Rockets, and Beggars Banquet released the album that September. The song went all the way to number two on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart.
John A. Rivers produced it, Kevin Haskins sits in on keyboards, and Natacha Atlas adds a guest vocal, as she does across much of the album. Entertainment Weekly heard the whole record as thick, throbbing drums and sinewy tunes under Ash's heavily processed, almost inhuman voice, which is about as good a map of this dark, slinky corner of post-Bauhaus pop as you'll find.
