Once all the new songs had been recorded, many of the band's fans stepped in and--in an unprecedented move for a major recording act--they helped shape the creation of Reactionary by expressing directly to Face To Face, through Internet voting, which of the new tunes they liked or didn't like.
"Through a promotion with mp3.com, we let our audience vote on which material made it onto the record," states Trever. "And we chose the most popular, most voted-for songs. So we felt that we were reacting to the opinions of our audience. We thought Reactionary was a very a very fitting title for that approach."
