Countdown To Extinction is probably my favorite metal album of all time.  I'm sure nearly everyone will think that's crazy, but hey, we've all got to have a favorite metal album -- and Countdown is mine.  I wear the mantle proudly.

Just gave Youthanasia a re-listen today and I came to the conclusion that is the best album they did back in the 90s (Behind Rust in Peace, of course) and their best non-Thrash Metal album. Pure fucking Golden Heavy Metal.

Agreed. Countdown is a better technical album (and in my MD top-3), but Youth is darker, which I like better.

I just youtubed a bunch of Youthanasia tunes yesterday. They sound much better than I remembered. If I can get it cheap, I'll probably pick up a copy.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

I'm not a Megadeth fan at all, but I just listened to all of Rust in Peace again, and it's extremely fun to listen to. Very nice break from all the uber-heavy metal stuff nowadays.
Not 'Down To F***', but 'Dream Theater Forums' .

This is one of the few CD's that stay in my car, others get rotated in and out

Countdown To Extinction >>>>>>>>>> Youthanasia

YOU LIE

Yes he lies.

Youthanasia is way better.  Better solos, better vocal melodies, better smell and taste.

Countdown is one CD that has aged horribly for me. It's the CD that got me into metal and, nowadays, I can only listen to maybe half the songs on it. Sure the other half are awesome, but the others? Ugh.

Youthanasia is far more consistent, with none of Countdown's highs, but none of its extreme lows.

Youthanasia has some awesome songs and I really like it. Countdown To Extinction is better. Anyone who disagrees can have ashes in their mouth.

Megadeth Premiered the video for The Right To Go Insane, the song/video is based on a true story:

"On May 17, 1995, a U.S. Army veteran and unemployed plumber in San Diego, Shawn Timothy Nelson, snapped and stole an M60 Patton tank from a nearby National Guard Armory. He drove down the highway, crushing cars, fire hydrants and an RV before he was stopped and killed by police.

The headline-grabbing story forms the basis of Megadeth's new video for "The Right to Go Insane", the second single from the band's acclaimed 2009 disc "Endgame". In the clip, which surprisingly features no performance footage, frontman Dave Mustaine is filmed sneaking onto a military facility, stealing a tank and playing crash-up derby through the streets. Video footage from the cockpit shows him singing and laughing, while shots from a surveillance helicopter depict a missile gunsight tracking him as he pillages."

I don't think I stressed this enough:

I felt its length in quite a few places.

I dunno, I haven't listened to Youthanasia in a LONG time. I bought the remaster early last month to Countdown To Extinction and it's great. I used to really enjoy Youthanasia too so it may be a tie for me.

Production on Youthanasia is pretty cool too.
