I group pairs of songs together that are back to back on their albums as well. Cropduster/Ghost. Go/Animal. Faithfull/No Way. Last Exit/Spin The Black Circle. It's not for any sonic similarity, it's just I can't divorce the context from the songs when it comes to these so I'll always think of them as belonging in pairs.

It's Brain of J/Faithfull to me. Probably 'cause they're connected by that weird explosion sound.

I can see why they'd get grouped like that. I can't explain why my pairings happen, they just do.
