Countdown to Extinction (оригинал Megadeth). Обратный отсчет до исчезновения (перевод akkolteus). Endangered species, caged in fright. Исчезающий вид, живущий в ужасе в неволе, Shot in cold blood, no chance to fight. Хладнокровно расстреливаемый без шанса дать отпор, The stage is set, now pay the price. This is it, this is the countdown to extinction. Обратный отсчет до исчезновения начался. Tell the truth, you wouldn't dare. Сказать правду ты не осмелишься, The skin and trophy, oh so rare. Шкура и трофеи, они ведь такие редкие. Silence speaks louder than words.

Countdown to Extinction reached in the American charts. In the long run, this was probably the worst thing that could have happened to the band. According to the album's linear notes, Megadeth's main man, Dave Mustaine, was very upset that the album didn't hit the coveted spot in the charts. The band wanted to reach so much that they got progressively poppier until their 1999 album, Risk. None of the albums coming after Countdown – Youthanasia, Cryptic Writings, and Risk – ever reached and none of them sold as well as Countdown to Extinction either
