Described as nu metal and groove metal,Rivals has been compared to all of the previous Coal Chamber albums, being described as most similar to the band's third album Dark Days. In a 2015 review of the album, 100% Rock Magazine wrote that "Coal Chamber have taken the nu metal styling of the early 2000’s and modernized the sound for the current day". The album Rivals shows Coal Chamber moving away from their gothic sound.
