They Sound The Same Underwater, originally named The Inevitable Heat Death of The ​Universe: And Other Short Stories, is the first album by Campfire Social.

Campfire Social are a constantly evolving 12 legged gang of friends that can mine ​the best bits of The Weakerthans, Los Campesinos! or The Get Up Kids from song ​to song. Or all at once. Depending on their mood.

Masters of the introspective, listen-to-while-looking-out-of-a-rain-streaked-train-​window heartstring pulling anthem, their songs can flick a switch between 80s UK ​kitchen sink indie to 2000s Midwest Emo in a broken heartbeat.

At the end of 2019 the band set their sights on writing what was to be their first full ​length, only to have all plans thrown out the window by a worldwide pandemic that ​shall not be named. What they had begun to piece together would be eventually ​released as The Everything Changed EP.

All things considered this ended up being a blessing in disguise, as far as the band ​are concerned, as what came next was a collection of songs that they think ‘shit all ​over’ previous tracks and having reunited with old friend and musical companion, ​Michael Deponeo, they believe Campfire Social is now what it was always meant to be.

Every Song on the album has it’s own place in our hearts and as a whole piece it feels ​almost autobiographical. “I think we just stopped caring about what people would ​think and thought more about what we wanted to say and how we wanted to achieve ​that. There are ups and ups and downs throughout the album and although we touch ​on themes of loss or general despair there is a continued sense of hope that rings ​through til the end. above all it’s honest.

Cream vinyl.
