While their music is technically classified as hard rock or heavy metal, some critics regard it as alternative metal or nu metal. Regarding the criticisms from die-hard heavy metal fans who say that Disturbed is not “heavy enough”, Draiman answered:

"We probably have too much melody going on or we're not quite as turbulent or caustic. While I really love that type of music, it's not what we try to do. If we have to place things in context, we're more hard rock than heavy metal these days”.
