The name of the project is inspired on something they read in the preface of Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit: \"The life of God and divine cognition may well be spoken of as a disporting of love with itself; but this idea sinks into mere edification, and even insipidity, if it lacks the seriousness, the suffering, the patience, and the labor of the negative.\"\u003cbr\u003e\nThe name of the band's first full-length album, \"The Triumph of Time and the Disillusioned,\" is instead inspired by Händel's piece entitled \"The Triumph of Time and Disillusion.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eWith such premises, it is easy to imagine how LABOR OF THE NEGATIVE’s black metal sounds harsh and intellectual, adventurous and creative, dark and illuminating, all at the same time. A philosophical investigation inspired by a wealth of different thinkers like Epicurus, Hegel, Hume, Nietzsche, Kierkegaard and Durkheim, musically \"The Triumph of Time and the Disillusioned\" is rooted in the avant-garde black metal of VIRUS, ARCTURUS and DODHEIMSGARD, among the others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eIn LABOR OF THE NEGATIVE's hands, the most feral black metal is infiltrated by schizoid and hallucinatory vocals that give a theatrical aura to the whole thing, often echoed by the equally twisted and venomous sounds of a sax. The result makes \"The Triumph of Time and the Disillusioned\" a complex, layered, and one-of-a-kind work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e1.
