나무랄데 없는 믹싱상태와 통일감있는 연주로 기존의 거친 사운드에서 탈피하여 한층 정돈된 깔끔한 느낌을 주는 Megadeth의 5집음반 Countdown To Extinction 이다. 물론, 전작들에 비하면 사운드의 진행이 여유로워진 모습이라 접근성이 용이해지긴 했지만, 본작이 빌보드 앨범차트 2위까지 올라서는 등 일반 대중들에게까지 파고들며 폭넓은 인기를 누렸다는 것은 놀라운 일이 아닐 수 없다. Ozzy Osbourne, Loudness등의 앨범들을 제작하며 뛰어난 엔지니어링 실력을 과시한 Max Norman의 가세로 파트별 균형이 세련되게 잘 잡혀있으며 톤 역시, 카랑카랑하게 잘 뽑혀진 느낌이다. 완숙한 연주력을 바탕으로 한 밴드지향적인 스래쉬 사운드를 들려주며 스래쉬의 대중화에 앞장섰다. Countdown To Extinction 앨범을 시발점으로 앨범을 거듭할수록 점점 느슨해진 음악을 들려주어 골수팬들의 원성을 사기도 했다. 메마름과 윤기의 공존.

4집 직후에 출시된 앨범이라 여러모로 비교를 많이 당하지만, 그냥 놓고봐도 확실히 본작부터 메가데스의 음악에는 대중적인 느낌이 많이드러나기 시작한다, 음악이 별로라는것은 아니다,
