Terry Friesen (Canadian vocalist and guitarist of Gothic progressive metalact Sombre Holiday and other solo projects conceived the idea for Midnight
Worship when he thought to himself, “If someone asked me to write worship
songs, what would they sound like?”  He offers further insight: “Well, I
love looking at the night sky… and I began looking for portions of the Bible that
focus on God’s nighttime creation:
“I lie awake thinking of you, meditating on you through the night”(Psalm 63:6)
“I reflect at night on who you are, O Lord… I rise at midnight to thankyou…” (Psalm 119:55, 62)Midnight Worship comes fully recommended for progressive aficionados, andnot just those attuned towards the metal side but also of a rock to hard rock
nature, with generous use of acoustic guitar (to appear on each track),
keyboards and violin playing no small role in this regard. As its moniker
suggests, Midnight Worship places equal emphasis on the worshipful – you can
potentially call it ‘worship prog’ if you like – in fulfilling said calling of
‘mixing meditative metal with God’s Word for humanity.
