July 7, 2013 | Patrick Gann | Comments Off on CAVE Music History 2003 – 2012 Video Series Share this
In 2011, I started an ambitious project: to collect every audio CD published by the developer/publisher CAVE (Deathsmiles, Dodonpachi, Espgaluda, Mushihimesama, etc).

Module’s “The Pieces Fit” video released
The sole (lyrical) vocal track from Module’s original album Imagineering (released last year, reviewed here), entitled “The Pieces Fit,” now has a music video.
