...Terms like Industrial Metal, Cyberpunk grunge and Acidic Powergroove have been used to try to describe a sound and a band that no catch phrase or subcategory can do complete justice to...this is a band that has to be experienced to be understood. Their live performances have transformed audiences into looking more like the scene of a tribal sacrifice...The audiences seem to loose themselves through Transilvia's powerful audio assault...one finds them self haunted by the lyrics and samples which explore socio/political issues as well as personal pain. What is surprising is that you will find yourself humming their infectious rhythms and undeniable grooves that are put forth with mechanical precision, yet no trace of sterility...Transilvia embody the power of industrial metal, the attention to sound of grindcore, the inattention to sound of noise, and the attitude and groove of gangsta' rap...
writer: Carlo Gerard Salgado circa 1991
