Megadeth - Countdown to Extinction (demo version)

[scdriver007]

bad ass song youd have to be fuckin deaf not to think so

[TheTaskmaster]

very cool to hear after growing up with the song a different way.

this sounds more like Rust In Peace mode, whereas the way it is on the album is clearly a signal to the coming Youthanasia sound. (i love both)

[SouthOfHeaven97]

Better then the original imo.

[rodrigogier]

drums sounds like a heavier song,and this song (in original version) sounds..easy

[Orthorexia666]

This version is much better than the Album version... Guess they should have placed this one instead...

[Nuclearkarnage]

this version is better than the originall

[Dopemop]

BBQ chips, beer and early megadeth.. cant get much better than that

[blommen]

much better than the official version.

[ganonuchia]

they should have included the 1:25 riff its amazing

[ganonuchia]

Damn I love this one

[ragzy02]

This is totally Rust in Peace style guitar sound and technique. I love R.I.P, but it's amazing how more mature and powerful that the Countdown to Extinction album is! I like this, but I'm glad they incorporated their new system for CTE. Especially sonically, CTE is innovative with the bass guitar click, a brutal guitar sound, and Mustaine's vocals were FAR improved in CTE than any previous album to date. CTE, IMO, was Megadeth's pinnacle!

[zupperm]

I like the double bass on this one

[cameronlewisii]

Looks like 3 people missed the like button...

[puppymaiden]

Just change that shitty voice and this song is better than the original one!!

[GetoutofMyYard1]

Everything sounds so much better.. the tempo.. the drums.. the singing.. Woah!

[aeroragesys]

3:47 sounds like Beneath the Remains intro by Sepultura, no?

[kevinkav]

The riff at 1:25 is so bad ass.

[marquillomijares]

the drums sound much better than the original, even the riffs too

[Ghaiyst]

difference between this and the original, is thatsays "You pull the trigger," Then he says, "Squeeze the trigger that makes you mad," (triger=hammer) plus the way he sings is kinda "Off," which is how critics see it. The way I see it is just kick ass singing where you dont even give a fuck about what anyone says. So, yea, I think this is probably better than what turned out. I forgot to mension, also the girl who talked like, an avatar character saying stuff about life formsandshitisn'tindemo

[federrickcockroaches]

better than the album version... for sure! it's more "metal"!!!

[1madaboutguitar]

Arr the drumming over the guitar solo. The groove man...fuckin brilliant

[protowesker]

better than the album version

[Austrelopitecus]

lol the main chorus is with drum gallops, amazing!

[TheDarrellStinson]

noicce

[Acidosis305]

so much better

[TheDarrellStinson]

meh little less good but still good for a demo

[vilemk10]

Should be called "Countdown to Extinction (ballsy version)"

[carlitoxarg]

I love Megadeth Demos, because they're very close to the final version of the song!

[wizorz]

nice one

[Arkanus01]

amazing version!!!!

in some parts are better than the original

[Baintheman]

yeah especially the doubble bass drum :-)

[Arkanus01]

yeeeahhh!!!! the drum is the best :D

[federrickcockroaches]

@Arkanus01 for sure! it's better!

[Fifa11FUN]

@Arkanus01 THIS is the original

=)

u mean its better than the album version

and YES ! thats right

[98DESTRUCTION]

@Arkanus01 technically this is orignal dumbass because it came out first numb nuts the correct term you were looking for is album version since this is the demo!

[IbanezRG10]

gotta love CTE!

[mbm13213]

Awesomeness defined.

[stinger2u]

This sounds to me like it could be on KIMB or Peace sells, its a lot better than the album version :)

[guitarclaydo]

3:57 I WANT DAVES SHIRT!!

[anthonyhaines]

0:46 two sellouts and a god

[Metalheadgamingnerd]

It's not fake. It's on the CtE remastered album.

[metaLisandman]

it's because the bad quality, but it's not fake

[Baldmelon]

i like the chorus riffing far better in the demo

[domothemetalgod]

I like this version,Obviously the vocals arnt 100% but hey its a demo and a banging one at that!I wish I could get my hands on some others!

[metalman1414]
