Death Milkshake premieres music video for ‘Gravity’ – What’s on in Roscommon
Death Milkshake, an alt-rock influenced electronic artist from Ballaghaderreen, has recently unveiled the official music video for his track “Gravity.” This artistic endeavor was captured in various picturesque locations in Roscommon and Sligo, including the striking Caves of Keash. The music video is now available for viewing on YouTube, offering viewers a captivating visual experience to accompany the mesmerizing sounds of “Gravity.”
The genesis of “Gravity” dates back to the fall of 2024 when it was commissioned as a part of the Ballaghaderreen section of the ‘Creative Places’ project, supported by Creative Ireland and the Arts Council of Ireland. Collaborating with photographer Eithne Gallagher and writer Joe Egan, both based in Ballaghaderreen, Death Milkshake crafted not only the song “Gravity” but also a piece of writing and an artwork, the single’s cover image. The theme of ‘This must be the place’ served as the inspiration for this creative project.
“Gravity” serves as a musical response to Eithne’s photograph, with the song’s mood mirroring the darkness depicted in the image. The track starts with a reflective tone before transitioning into a dynamic and beat-driven climax, capturing the essence of the photograph’s narrative visually and aurally. This fusion of music and imagery creates a captivating storytelling experience for the audience.
Recently, Death Milkshake was acknowledged as the sole Connaught artist on Today FM’s list of Irish artists to watch in 2025. This recognition follows consistent radio support for “Gravity” and other tracks from Death Milkshake’s debut EP, “Shiny Things,” released in 2024. The artist’s unique sound has garnered attention and praise, leading to this well-deserved recognition among the industry’s rising stars.
