Newborn Sun 09:36
Pitch black night Filled with cries Smoke of incense Obscures the sky A rite of tribe for delight of god I see the sacrifice For Newborn Sun Glorious incantation Before the empty eyes They cannot see The Sunrise Tempting smell of incense spreads Bemuses and devours So it starts the time of Newborn Sun
3.
Portraits 07:32
Blood run drowns the ground And the hunting begins These wild hearts sing so loud Holding skulls and feeding fear The tomb beneath the trees It's the only hide for you But there's darkness in the cracks They will find the passage through Look, you fool, and see your fate These graveyard souls have been remained For too long, now they are screaming! Through the forest of denial I walk alone Pulled by greedy portraits, I die in agony When all the things once they got Despair, grief, anger, hate These faces are alive These portraits are real
4.
Prayers 05:50
Orb of light Order lifeless disharmony Touching unseen prison Rapture of this misery Alchemy... From the human of stars Voices... Vortex, Emptiness Cosmic creation Breath from beyond It's not yours... Descendant... I saw this shadow Hiding in the metal cage Secret was given By the hand of god Labyrinth of time Lost in the forgotten past Prayers of anger - Coma from the sky Descendant! Creators of sun Cult of birthgiver reunion Millions of inferior souls Waiting for response
5.
Mismatch 05:16
So he fell down From the sky A trembling giant The masked reminder The source of life In his empty eyes Never more feelings Of pointless existence in here Looking at shining vastness Knowing, feeling my initial form I didn’t choose to be here I didn’t choose to dream alone But the path is fatal, not eternal The transition will come The update will come Still mismatch...
6.
Imitation 07:10
Other law in another form Genetic chains describe errors Wrong way of architects faulty inside covers human flesh Now obey the greatest ones We’ve been given An order of new life We are here to spoil this world We are your end We are the law!

Anaesthesia 04:24
Black interior Chambers of thousands stars Falling from the coldest sky Full of dead memories Emptiness of narcosis Coming from the past Self-awareness: suspended By sword of other dimension Dreaming... Awaiting... In unrest... In darkness... Screaming... Awaiting... In emptiness... In pain...
9.
Suppression 06:13
Restored The Sky is closing Incoming darkness was rejected Destination - unknown Remoted The mission is over The Origin is forgotten The eye of god leads us to our end Restored! The eye of god leads us to our end

about

"(...) Our progressive dreamers presented themselves to the world with a very fulfilling debut that leaves no doubt to the very promising road ahead, but in the meantime - dive into exceptionally good "Nexus Artificial"."
- Chris Kloczko, Metal Bite ( view full review on www.metalbite.com/tracks.asp?album=13441 ).

"O sile Nexus Artificial stanowią przede wszystkim urozmaicone i pokręcone konstrukty kompozycyjne pokroju Newborn Sun, w których co i rusz pojawia się wrażenie, że za tym albumem stoją starzy wyjadacze o niemałym talencie i duszach wzbogaconych w coś, co nazywam muzycznym szaleństwem. Nie spodziewałem się tak bezczelnie dobrego i niesamowicie dopracowanego materiału, który zaskakuje, czaruje i nie pozostawia miejsca na wątpliwości na kogo stawiać w przyszłości."
- Kamil Dróżdż, I'm Stuck Between ( przeczytaj recenzję pod adresem imstuckbetween.blogspot.com/2014/03/defying-nexus-artificial-2014.html ).

"Debiuty bywają trudne. Debiuty w Polsce – potwornie trudne. „Nexus Artificial” z całą pewnością nie brzmi jakby był to pierwszy album formacji Defying. Urozmaicone kompozycje, ociekające wręcz mrokiem, ale z całą pewnością nie przesadnie ciężkie. Smaczny, dopracowany, przemyślany i świetnie podany mrok. Świetny, polski album!"
- Norbert Nowicki, odkryjmuzyke.com ( przeczytaj artykuł pod adresem odkryjmuzyke.com/podsumowanie-i-kwartalu-2014-roku-muzyka-ciezka/ ).

"W zalewie deathcorowych popłuczyn i niestrawnych pseudometalowych kapelek Defying błyszczy niczym diament. Do oszlifowania rzecz jasna. Bardzo smaczny album, do którego można wielokrotnie wracać i odkrywać coś nowego. Polecam!"
- Dominik Stankiewicz, Stanley Recenzuje ( przeczytaj recenzję pod adresem stanleyrecenzuje.blogspot.com/2014/04/defying-nexus-artificial-2014.html ).
