Jackviper have been featured twice in international metal magazine Metal Hammer who describe the band as having "The speed of Motorhead and the intensity of Guns N' Roses".
The band's influences include acts like Motley Crue and Guns N' Roses, the band who brought glam metal to public attention with their 1987 debut Appetite for Destruction. Other acts that have influenced the band include Nine Inch Nails, Love/Hate, Motorhead and Beautiful Creatures
