Relive and recontextualize the alternative Christian music we grew up listening to in the 1990s
We did it! After a long, slow descent into Christian music-induced madness, we've finally found where the sea floor drops off into oblivion thanks to an album so aggressively dull, so devoid of anything resembling intrigue or artistic value, that it's left us staring into the yawning void of our own psychosis. Congratulations to Christian music's crustiest jack strap: Disciple's 1997 EP, My Daddy Can Whip Your Daddy—a title as embarrassing as the music it drags behind it.

https://www.discogs.com/release/445594-Fanmail-The-Latest-Crazehttps://www.amazon.com/Latest-Craze-Fanmail/dp/B00000J802Scott Silleta:Following his departure from Plankeye in July 1998, Silletta formed the Christian pop-punk band Fanmail that year. In 1999, Fanmail released an extended play, Here Comes Fanmail EP, and their debut studio album, The Latest Craze, with the former containing a cover of The Police's 1983 single "Every Breath You Take." In the same year, the band's only music video, "Rock and Roll Star", was released;[18] it was directed by Derek Dale. Fanmail's second studio album, Fanmail 2000, was released in 2000 and included a cover of the Backstreet Boys' 1999 single "I Want It That Way"; it was the band's last release before the group disbanded in 2002. The band's song "Superfan" was featured on the soundtrack to the 2001 movie Extreme Days[19] as well as in the film. "Rock and Roll Star" and the band's cover of "I Want It That Way" appeared on the Tooth & Nail Tenth Anniversary compilation in 2003.[20] Silletta formed another Christian punk rock band, The Franchise, which released one studio album, Original Inevitable, on his Vanishing Point Records label on August 12, 2003.[21][22] Silletta later released a solo album, The Life and Times of..., on June 17, 2011.[23]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlankeyeSome Geocities Website:The Review:Raiting: B+Fanmail has just released their first album. Its an EP with four songs. It is called "Here Comes Fanmail." Let me start by telling you that the lead singer used to be in Plankeye and the guitarist from Slick Shoes. Fanmail combines both types of music. The music sounds like Plankeye but with a more punk edge. If you liked Plankeye you will definitely like Fanmail. Fanmail is much better of a band than Plankeye.It is only around $5 and I suggest giving it a try. I would have liked a couple more songs but it is still good.The Band:Scott Silletta - Vocals, GuitarDale Yob - GuitarJason Fleetwood - Bass, BGVJason Feltman - Drumshttps://www.oocities.org/sunsetstrip/stage/1512/fanmail/Ridiculous interview with Scott, late 2000https://www.skruttmagazine.se/fanmaileng.htmAllMusic bio:Featuring members of 90-lb Wuss, the Cootees, Plankeye, Slick Shoes, Value Pac and Rainy Days, Fanmail could be considered as a Christian punk super group. Formed in 1998 out of Orange County, CA, the four piece released their first EP on Tooth & Nail Records entitled Here Comes Fanmail. The full-length debut Latest Craze followed in 1999. Fanmail 2000 was released a year later.https://www.allmusic.com/artist/fanmail-mn0000170985#biographylast.FM bio:Former Plankeye lead singer/guitar player Scott Siletta's new band Fanmail released their first four track EP titled "Here Comes Fanmail EP" in Feb 1999 1.

Joined by Yob (guitar's/bgv's) , Fleetwood (bass) and Jason (drums), Fanmail evidently enjoy playing there peculiar brand of high energy, hard edged pop punk rock for those willing enough to latch onto 'The Latest Craze'. Scott has matured both his performance and song-writing since the early days of Plankeye, as Fanmail's debut album clearly demonstrates. Scott and co poke fun at at life with tongues firmly planted in cheeks; simultaneously directing the listener to Christ. Topics range from the deceit of fame ('Rock And Roll Star"), the celebration of family ('Jordi') and the need for humility ('Wonderful Punches'). 'The Latest Craze' is packed full of well produced and executed songs at the hands of Scott Silletta and Gene Eugene; where a truly original, yet familiar style is not only realised but also maintained throughout. Be a true fanatic, get into ' The Latest Craze'!https://www.crossrhythms.co.uk/products/Fanmail/The_Latest_Craze/911/Release Date: 17 June 1999https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/fanmail/the-latest-craze/Pastor Dave's Playlist May 7, 20185. “Turn off that Radio” by FanmailScott Silleta, the band's frontman, was one of my rock n'roll heroes when I was in high school. I was pretty much obsessed with him for a while. So, when he left the Christian rock band Plankeye and started a pop-punk band I followed right along. Fanmail was, admittedly, not great but Silletta's inclusion had me hooked. This song from their first album The Latest Craze (1999) is fairly pointless in lyrical content, with the chorus simply repeating “turn off that radio” over and over again. For whatever reason, however, is stuck with me this week and was a good, fun, blast.https://pastordaveonline.org/2018/05/07/this-weeks-good-music-14/LA Times Interview, March 9, 2001“I've long been against the whole labeling mechanism that Christians have given themselves and the box it has put them in,” said Cummings during an interview at the Hub Cafe in Fullerton. “Declaring you have to act in a certain way or sing only songs that praise the Lord serves to stifle art and creativity.”“It's weird. It's like we're stuck in the middle somewhere,” Guyton added. “The secular market won't touch us because we're Christians, and the Christian market won't either because we're not Christian enough.”What irks front man Silletta--a former member of Plankeye, one of Orange County's most successful Christian rock bands--is the false idolization he says he has encountered. He addresses the issue in “Hero,” a song on “Fanmail 2000,” the follow-up to 1999's debut, “Latest Craze,” both released on Seattle-based Tooth & Nail Records.“After shows in my old band, people would touch me and cry . . . really silly stuff like that,” said Silletta, who formed Fanmail in 1998 because of creative tensions within Plankeye.“They build you into this superhero in their mind, expecting all kinds of things from you. But when you don't live up to those expectations, they tear you down. When MxPx left Tooth & Nail [in 1998] for a major label [A&M; Records], they were slammed for [allegedly] not being Christians anymore. I know those guys firsthand. . . . I don't know anyone with more integrity than the three guys in that band.”…With the release of “Fanmail 2000,” the band fulfilled its contractual obligation to Tooth & Nail and, according to Silletta, has declined to sign a new, five-album deal. Fanmail, whose members range from ages 29 to 42, is looking to expand its local fan base with a series of shows here. They're also hoping to attract major label interest.“One of the good things about Tooth & Nail is that their [products are] distributed by EMI,” Silletta said. “It's been fantastic to have our CDs available at all the retail outlets. The problem, though, is that I have, in two different bands, been under contract with them since ‘93, and I just feel like it's time to work with someone else that can take our music to the next level.”https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2001-mar-09-me-35371-story.html
