Having reunited last year with a studio and a live album, ‘90s New Brunswick rockers Transilvia plan to stay together and are working on a new record.

Their last one — and their first in 29 years — “Hz,” featured “Trapped in Ice,” the Makin Waves Song of the Week.

As the Makin Waves Song of the Week, “Trapped in Ice” also can be heard between 6 and 8 p.m. on Jan. 5 on “Radio Jersey” at ThePenguinRocks.com. If you miss it, you can tune in any time in the archives at The Penguin and MixCloud.

“Trapped in Ice” is a breakup song about the future becoming the present, the present becoming the past, said co-founding guitarist-vocalist E. Rex, who wrote the song with former drummer Jon Nicholson a year after Transilvia broke up in 1996.

It had never been properly released until 2023, when Rex and co-founding bassist Jeremy Android reunited and released the “HZ”EP.

The original trio — also drummer-sampler Rodney Craven — are working on new music. This is the lineup responsible for the first three Transilvia albums.
