Megadeth strives for arena thrash success and gets it . On 'Countdown to Extinction' Megadeth trades in their lengthy, progressive compositions for tight, compactly written and played songs better suited for radio and MTV airplay, or the broad fan base of rock music worldwide. The album reached #2 on the U. S. Billboard charts and went double platinum in 1992. 'Countdown To Extinction' was nominated for a Grammy in the "Best Metal Performance" category in 1992.
