Jason Wisdom is the former lead vocalist and bass guitarist for the Christian Progressive death metal band Becoming the Archetype signed to Solid State Records and Century Media Records (Europe) formed in 1999 in Dacula, Georgia. Though he was born and raised in a Christian home, he states that he was never committed to Christianity until high school.[2] He considers his music as a form of ministry, but wishes to avoid a "preachy" stereotype. His influences include Extol, Living Sacrifice, and Mortification among others.[3] Wisdom is an avid fan of metal music, and Christian metal in particular. He notes that even though his music is Christian metal, many of his fans are not Christians and are many times the ones who defend his music.[2] Wisdom left the band in late November 2011 to take care of his family.[4] Though current 7 Horns 7 Eyes frontman, JJ Polachek, tried out, Wisdom was replaced by former live fill in, Chris McCane.[4] He has recently started a solo project titled Death Therapy, which features no Guitars.[5][6] He currently works for RYFO, a company that helps musicians with places to stay, meals and other such things.[3][7]

History

Becoming the Archetype (1999-2011)

Wisdom's musical career started in 1999, when he helped form Technical death metal band, Becoming the Archetype with Guitarists Sean Cunningham and Jon Star, Bassist Wes Gaither, and Drummer Brent "Duck" Duckett.[3] The band was not originally called BTA, as it was called Nonexistent Failure. The band recorded a demo under this monkier, before changing the name again to The Remant. The band recorded a demo and a their self titled album under this name. Around 2003-2004 the band played Cornerstone Festival, where they met the musicians in Demon Hunter.[3] The members of DH told the members of the band to change their name, so they would not be confused with the punk band The Remnants.[3] The band again changed their name to Becoming the Archetype.[3] The band went over several line-up changes with the exception of Wisdom, Duck and founding BTA Guitarist (who had nothing to do with Nonexistent Failure or The Remnant) Seth Hecox. The band recorded four albums, titled Terminate Damnation, The Physics of Fire, Dichotomy, and Celestial Completion, before Wisdom and Duck left the band, on November 14, 2011.

Solamors (2012-present)

Beginning in 2012, Jason joined with guitarist Alex Kenis (Aletheian, ex-Becoming the Archetype) and drummer Travis Turner (ex-Aletheian, UnTeachers) to begin their new band Solamors based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.[8][9] The band's influences are Death, Emperor, Cynic, Becoming the Archetype, Aletheian, The Burial, Black Crown Initiate, Demon Hunter, Devin Townsend, Strapping Young Lad, Extol.[8]

Death Therapy (2015-present)
