Wisdom formed in Los Angeles around vocalist Kevin Max and bassist David Ruis. Their first album came out in 1992, featuring the song 'God Rest Your Soul.' They worked with rock and soul sounds, which felt different from a lot of other spiritual music at the time.
They put out a few more records through the 1990s, including 'Blue Monday' in 1994 and 'The Wish' in 1997. Songs like 'Silent Hill' and 'War of Angels' show their style, a kind of rock that leaned into spiritual themes without sticking to one genre's rules.
By 2000 they'd released 'Beautiful Affliction,' which had a more direct, less polished feel. The music wasn't trying to fit a format, just what came from that particular collaboration in LA.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
