00:01:49 - Persistence of Time is the fifth studio album by American Thash metal band Anthrax.
00:02:05 - The album was released on August 21, 1990 through Megaforce Worldwide, Island Records.
00:02:12 - This is the last work recorded by the classic group made up of Scott Ian, Dan Spitz, Frank
00:02:17 - Bello, Charlie Bonante and Joey Belladonna.
00:02:23 - The band abandoned comics in their lyrics, and began to denounce the social problems of capitalism in the modern world, racism being one of them.
00:02:32 - The lyrics of the song Keep I'm the Family, deals with this problem and how racist attitudes are often kept in the family, if mom hated this and dad hated that etc.
00:02:44 - Anthrax is saying that that way of thinking is no reason to be racist, and start thinking for yourself, having your own ideas and forming your own opinions, more smart.
00:02:56 - The song begins with a very heavy riff, with Charlie Bonante and Belladonna accompanying the rhythm.
00:03:04 - This is a song that talks about hate, specifically racial hate, although it can easily be extrapolated to political hate.
00:03:13 - The final message of the song is that we must not allow hate to win us, we must always seek the truth because everyone seeks to satisfy their own desires, we must always seek the truth by investigating various sources, objectively analyzing the facts and data and not letting ourselves be led like sheep by this or that leader, the truth is outside.
00:03:33 - We just have to look for it and accept it even if we don't like it.
00:03:40 - Scott Ian and Charlie Bonante remember the recording of this album.
00:03:43 - The fire happened.
00:03:44 - The fire happened during that record.
00:03:46 - Yeah.
00:03:47 - We lost a lot of our equipment.
00:03:49 - Maybe that's why that record is dark.
00:03:52 - But actually it's dark because we came off the state of euphoria, which was very happy.
00:03:58 - We were, I mean, in our career we were just the happiest we've ever been, so I guess it was normal to be, have this, you know, state of euphoria.
00:04:07 - And then some people just wanted to take that away from us, gave us, you know, this backlash and stuff.
00:04:12 - And I think persistence of time was the result.
00:04:17 - Persistence of time to me has more in common with Sound of the White Noise than it does.
00:04:23 - Certainly has stayed euphoria.
00:04:25 - Like it would have made more sense as a follow-up to Among the Living.
00:04:29 - But if you listen to the music leave, you listen to the music on persistence of time, it's definitely closer to Sound of the White Noise than it is to the record that came before it.
00:05:35 - Mankind, the fault of the enemy's not the man who speaks at night
00:05:49 - The fault of the enemy's the man that goes and acts blind
00:05:54 - Searching for an answer that'll never find
