The few that come to mind:
Red Mosquito/Half Full
Porch/Severed Hand
Mankind/Supersonic
those are the big 3

Would Lightning Bolt even be compared to Unthought Known if it had a different intro?

I always group cropduster and ghost together. Occasionaly it takes me a second to figure out which one I'm listening to.

PJ fans make some very vague connections between songs. If they weren't compared for their intros, they'd be compared because they both rise and fall, like an anthem, "like a wave".

Sirens / Black
While a Western guitar motif lost on the swings drum bass fusion, get your own thoughts into the subconscious often forgotten. "Pendulum" is a sweeping soul from the ballast.

Some of the guitar work is very similar.
