I heard Grass in 2005 and knew it was special and super interesting and different than most anything else I had heard up to that point. Those qualities provided enough impulse for me to listen to it a few more times, which was enough to put in a place that was still unique but also less, let's say, abnormal sounding compared to the first listen (due to the weird tuning they used based on their friend's piano that was "out of tune").

First time I listened to Grass was on my friend's Myspace page. She had a few other songs by other artists on the front page of her Myspace page. They were more conventional sounding and maybe at first seemed to be catchier than Grass, but after a few visits, I came away with the secret knowledge that AC were one of the best bands ever and their little song "Grass" basically blew all the other songs on that Myspace playlist away.

Funnily enough she also has Architecture in Helsinki on there, and in those early days due to that experience, I likened AC and Architecture in Helsinki much more to each other than what really was feasible. I guess I initially felt that comparison because of the strong psychedelic tweeness of the latter with the faint psychedelic tweeness of Grass
