Critical reception

The Austin Chronicle thought that "with seven songs in just over a half hour, the crew's heavy but lyrical riffs are immersed in a raw V-8 production aesthetic, and the results weigh on your back like concentrated heat; could be a massage, could be a bruise."[6]

AllMusic wrote: "Forceful, brutal, and blistering, River City Revival fits right in with the alternative metal climate of the late '90s—this is hardly an album that can be accused of having a lot of slickness or pop gloss."[2]
