With the target audience of Dragon Ball Z in North America at the time presumably being adolescents and teenagers, the inclusion of music from bands like Deftones and Disturbed may have very well been the first time some of the younger fans heard this type of music. While other English-language dubs would have rock-inspired soundtracks, they would be composed by Bruce Faulconer, Evan Jones, Mark Menza, Nathan Johnson and Dave Moran. The last major Funimation DBZ dub to have licensed music was the tenth film, Dragon Ball Z: Broly - Second Coming, including five songs by the band I.O.N. Funimation would go as far as to include a soundtrack compilation for The Legendary Super Saiyan, which included a whopping nineteen licensed songs, albeit from slightly more obscure bands than those on Cooler's Revenge.

This followed Funimation including licensed rock music for the soundtrack of the fourth DBZ film, Dragon Ball Z: Lord Slug, and the =television specials Dragon Ball Z: Bardock - The Father of Goku and Dragon Ball Z: The History of Trunks. More impressively, the home video release came at a time when bands like these were arguably at their commercial peak, though no especially popular singles were licensed for the soundtrack.

The Funimation dub of Cooler's Revenge contained twelve licensed songs on its soundtrack from seven different bands: American Pearl, Breaking Point, Deftones, Disturbed, Drowning Pool, Dust for Life and Finger Eleven. Catching Goku and company while they're on a camping trip, Cooler and his elite fighting force ambush the Z Fighters, with Goku eventually transforming into a Super Saiyan and blasting the interstellar tyrant directly into the sun while Piccolo dispatches the Cooler Force.
