WX-78 menu music theme - Anyone else thinks it sounds like this old Doom 2 song?

[Azamagon]

So, listen to this:

 

And now listen to the menu music that came with WX-78's rework:

 

I dunno, I'm not versed in music in any way - but why do I hear this weird similarity between them? Is it just me being weird (as usual)?

I think "banger" or "sick" is a much better descriptor of Doom 2 music than "old".

the sick bangers of the old Doom 2 soundtrack are worthy of many descriptors

Any similarities seem to be coincidental.

This is coming from someone that never heard the doom music, they are not alike.

First time hearing the doom song but they both have a general 'beep boop' feel.

Honestly I feel like the rework song doesn't fit that well, I like it but it seems a bit more eerie and mysterious then i expected, which in the context makes sense I guess, but I don't know why something about it doesn't make me like it quite as much as most other main menu themes they've made.
