Meagdeth released Countdown To Extinction in the mid 92’s. Released by Capitol Records the record took the market by storm.Marty Friedman, Dave Mustain have had a ball doin this record and the megadeth fans were really pleased as punch with this album.
Tryin to keep up to their anti Metallica status Meagdeth have outdone them selves. Dwelling deeper into the hate and misery of this world with lines such as the chorus of
Symphony of Destruction : Just like the Pied Piper Led rats through the streets We dance like marionettes, Swaying to the Symphony Of Destruction and the Title Track Countdown To Extinction Endangered species, caged in fright Shot in cold blood, no chance to fight The stage is set, now pay the price An ego boost, don’t think twice
Technology, the battle’s unfair You pull the hammer without a care Squeeze the trigger that makes you Man Pseudo-safari, the hunt is canned...The hunt is canned
The band as it selves have progressed over the years and have fine tuned the art of combining Heavy Metal, Underground Metal and Speed Metal to the very peak of its existence. This album has the works....drawing inspiration from Black Sabbath’s style of metal plecking and incoporating it in The title track, Highspeed Dirt is pure octane driven guitaring frenzy, The Soul Searching HANGER18 And MANY MANY more......A Must buy if you are into megadeth
