MEGADETH - Countdown To Extinction - USED LP VINYL - ORIGINAL 1992 UK & EUROPE PRESS - VG/VG+

Description

This is a rare one.  An original 1992 UK & Europe Press. The record has been graded as Very Good (VG) condition and the cover has been graded as Very Good Plus (VG+) condition.

Cover is showing some light edge wear.  There is a small mark at the top right of front cover where a sticker has been removed.

Printed inner sleeve with lyrics is included and is in NM (Near Mint) condition.

Vinyl shows surface some marks and light hairlines under bright light.  There is a very minor warp showing when played on side 1. Most people wouldn't notice it but only if you look closely you can see it.  It doesn't affect playback.  The record now lives in a new rice paper sleeve with the original inner sleeve supplied.

During playback the record has a couple of places where some background noise is evident during some of the quieter passages, very minor though.  Sounds great and has been graded accordingly.  

Megadeth – Countdown to Extinction (1992) Vinyl Album
The apex of precision metal meets vinyl glory.

Megadeth’s 1992 juggernaut Countdown to Extinction isn't just an album — it’s a razor-edged milestone in heavy metal history. Pressed on glorious vinyl, this edition captures all the menace, melody, and muscle that Dave Mustaine and crew unleashed at the peak of their powers.

From the politically charged punch of "Symphony of Destruction" to the dark introspection of "Foreclosure of a Dream," every track is a finely tuned fusion of thrash fury and streamlined songwriting. This album marked a pivotal moment where Megadeth sharpened their sound without dulling their message — a perfect balance of aggression and accessibility.
